AIADMK leader KP Munusamy said that party leader Edappadi K Palaniswami (EPS) holds full authority within the party and can remove anyone, amid continuing internal tensions.

Speaking on the issue, Munusamy alleged that there is a “conspiracy” being carried out by using EPS’ name. He claimed that attempts are being made to create confusion within the party.

Munusamy further alleged that in some districts, letters are being obtained from district secretaries by invoking Palaniswami’s name.

The remarks come in the backdrop of the AIADMK split and ongoing clashes within the party, as discussed in the Dinamalar TV political video released on May 14, 2026.
