The All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam’s (AIADMK) general council and executive will meet on December 15 at a marriage hall in Vanagaram near Chennai.
A. Tamilmagan Hussain, chairman of the presidium of the party, will chair the meeting, the party’s general secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami said in a statement.
Even though the meeting of the general council is an annual affair, it assumes relevance in the context of the party’s drubbing in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls. Mr. Palaniswami has been maintaining that there would be no revival of ties with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for the 2026 Assembly poll in Tamil Nadu.
Moreover, during the ongoing review of the position of the party by a panel of senior functionaries across the State, members of different factions in various districts, such as Tirunelveli, Madurai, Thanjavur, and Kanniyakumari, had a heated exchange of words.

The Union and State governments provided support in several ways to the needy people, but private institutions should also extend help, especially to those requiring medical assistance, said C.P. Rajkumar, Managing Director, Nalam Multispeciality Hospital, here on Saturday. Speaking at a function to honour Inspector General of Police V. Balakrishnan and neurologist S. Meenakshisundaram with C. Palaniappan Memorial Award for their contribution to society and Nalam Kappom medical adoption of Type-1 diabetic children, he said the governments implemented numerous welfare programmes, but the timely help by a private hospital or a doctor in the neighbourhood to the people in need would go a long way in safeguarding their lives.
