Celebrations broke out at the AIADMK headquarters in Chennai today soon after the Supreme Court allowed E Palaniswami to continue as interim general secretary of AIADMK.

A day after moving the Supreme Court over conduct of local body polls in Tamil Nadu, DMK chief MK Stalin today accused the ruling AIADMK regime of "creating confusions" on matters connected to the civic elections.

The Supreme Court order on the Rafale jet deal on Friday rocked the Rajya Sabha which witnessed intense sloganeering by the ruling BJP and opposition Congress members leading to adjournment of House proceedings.

Tamil Nadu's ruling AIADMK attempted to cushion the blow after Friday's Supreme Court's ruling on the Cauvery water dispute reduced the state's allocation of water, underlining the court's direction to set up a special body which could guarantee that Karnataka wasn't able to hold back the allocated water.

Sidelined AIADMK leader TTV Dhinakaran said on Thursday that his faction would move the Supreme Court against the Election Commission's ruling allotting the two-leaves symbol to the unified AIADMK led by Chief Minister K Palaniswami and his deputy O Panneerselvam.

The two rival factions of the ruling AIADMK in Tamil Nadu are in "advanced" talks to reconcile, the Supreme Court was told today in a request that sought a pause in an aggressive fight for power.

Within hours of being found guilty of corruption, VK Sasikala stepped on the gas to name a new leader for her party, the AIADMK.

He has written to Governor C Vidyasagar Rao asking for the chance to prove his majority in t...

AIADMK general secretary VK Sasikala has been ordered to serve a four-year jail term in a 21-year-old disproportionate assets case by the Supreme Court, ending her wait for an invitation from Tamil Nadu's Raj Bhavan to take over as the chief minister.
