Bowing to the demand made by rebel faction led by O. Panneerselvam (OPS) for the merger, Chief Minister Edappadi K Palaniswami recently announced that Government would set up an inquiry panel headed by a retired judge to probe into the circumstances leading to the former Chief Minister’s death.
Soon after the announcement, the two factions – one headed by Palaniswami and another by Panneerselvam merged.
