With the AIADMK’s one-party controversy at its peak, the issue can be traced back to the meeting of district secretaries and the High Court case.
When the AIADMK district secretaries’ meeting was held at the party headquarters on June 14, the single leadership was discussed for the first time.
Following the uproar over the incident, former minister Jayakumar, who met reporters on the same day, began the controversy by claiming that the need for a single leadership was the unanimous voice of district secretaries.

The EPS said that the amendment to the AIADMK rules may or may not happen in the General Assembly.
Finally, in a case seeking an injunction against the General Assembly, the Chennai High Court refused to grant an injunction. Thus the AIADMK general meeting is taking place as planned.
Edappadi Palanisamy, who has been at loggerheads with the OPS for the last 5 years over the single leadership issue, has found the field this time and led directly to the single leadership.
