Expelled All Indian Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) MP Sasikala Pushpa has written a letter to Governor C. Vidyasagr Rao, saying she fears that some people might forge Chief Minister J. Jayalalithaa's signature to run the party and the government in the state.

In a letter addressed to the governor, Pushpa said "It is feared that some people around Tamil Nadu Chief Minister, now hospitalised, may forge her signature to nominate a deputy general secretary to AIADMK and to run the Government also. Kindly verify ADMK general secretary signature if any official communication came from her. We request you to verify carefully, if at all any official communication came from them in this or any other regard."

Jayalalithaa, admitted to Apollo Hospital, has been undergoing treatment since September 22 after she complained of fever and de-hydration.

Opposition parties like DMK, and DMDK have been demanding that an interim chief minister be installed to run the government in the absence of Jayalalithaa.
