The AIADMK group headed by jailed General Secretary V.K. Sasikala's nephew T.T.V. Dinakaran on Tuesday informed Governor C.V. Rao that it wants the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister to be changed, a faction member said.
Speaking to a television channel Sasikala-Dinakaran loyalist Thangathamizh Chelvan said: "We have told the Governor that we will be taking steps to change Chief Minister K. Palaniswami."
He said: "We are taking steps to change the Chief Minister."
According to him, the party legislators would meet and elect a new Chief Minister.
The Dinakaran faction was upset over their isolation in the party.
Nineteen legislators belonging to the Dinakaran faction met the Governor on Tuesday at Raj Bhavan.
