TVK CADRE UPSET OVER FILLING OF DIST POSTS SANS APPOINTING STATE LEADERS

A section of senior cadre and functionaries of the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) has expressed discontent over the recent appointment of district-level office-bearers for the party’s volunteers, students, youth, and women’s wings, alleging the selections were made without appointing the respective state-level heads.

According to them, the appointments were made hastily in response to criticism that TVK lacked strong district-level leaders beyond its district secretaries, and that functionaries for the various wings were absent. “Earlier, no one came forward to take responsibility for party affairs except to install banners during Vijay’s road-

shows. To counter this perception, appointments were made quickly, but without proper system,” said a senior functionary.
