Separate events by rival camps mark AIADMK’s golden jubilee fete
The Hindu
O. Paneerselvam, Sasikala both called for the party’s return to power
The inauguration of the AIADMK’s golden jubilee celebration on Sunday saw rival camps holding separate events.
While the official camp led by coordinator O. Panneerselvam and co-coordinator Edappadi K Palaniswami hoisted the party flag at the headquarters of the organisation in Royapettah, the other camp, led by V.K. Sasikala, former interim general secretary of the party, did the same at the memorial house of the party founder and former Chief Minister M.G. Ramachandran in T. Nagar. The leaders were greeted by their followers on the path leading to the venues of their functions.

Selected from 9,400 submissions across 37 countries, the 100 photographs on display traverse intimate and political terrains. In MRC Nagar, photographer Swastik Pal captures life in the Sundarbans, where severe climate change has brought humans and wildlife into closer contact. Shane Hynan’s Beneath Beofhod reflects on Ireland’s boglands as sites of memory and restoration, while Mateo Trevisan’s More than the Sun examines the impact of coal-driven industrialisation in the Western Balkans.
