Even as a section of partymen wants her to don the chief minister's mantle, Sasikala is assessing the cadre's mood.
From being a constant companion and alter ego of former chief minister J Jayalalithaa to becoming the general secretary of the ruling party in Tamil Nadu, V K Sasikala has indeed arrived on the state’s political scene, but not yet completely.
Even as a section of partymen wants her to don the chief minister’s mantle, Sasikala is assessing the cadre’s mood.
