EPS to resume statewide tour from Sengottaiyan's stronghold

AIADMK leader Edappadi K Palaniswami will restart his constituency tours in Gobichettipalayam, selecting the Erode district stronghold of recently ousted politician K.A. Sengottaiyan for his return to public campaigning nearly seven weeks after pausing activities following a fatal crowd incident. The territorial choice signals leadership consolidation after Sengottaiyan faced expulsion for advocating factional reunification ahead of state assembly elections, an appeal interpreted as undermining Palaniswami's control.

The statewide outreach initiative began in July, covering 174 legislative districts before suspension, with 60 constituencies remaining for completion. Party officials are mobilizing supporters to demonstrate organizational cohesion in the territory historically aligned with the dismissed legislator.

Leadership will convene general council and executive sessions in Chennai under presidium chairman Tamilmagan Hussain to address structural coordination and electoral preparation strategies.
