Tamil Nadu Speaker P Dhanapal passed the order in this regard. Dhinakaran had already stated that they will move court if the Speaker disqualifies his loyalist MLAs.

On Sunday, Dhinakaran had demanded Tamil Nadu Chief Minister E  Palaniswami’s resignation, saying that “he is a chief minister because of Sasikala.” The Tamil Nadu chief minister E Palaniswami alleged that Dhinakaran wants to topple his government by colluding with the opposition DMK.
