With the Edappadi K Palaniswami-led government scheduled to face a motion of confidence in the Tamil Nadu Assembly on Saturday, the O Panneerselvam faction has requested the Speaker for a secret ballot.
The Sasikala faction claims support of 124 MLAs including the Assembly Speaker and the Panneerselvam faction has the backing of around 11 MLAs.
The Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK), which has around 89 seats in the Assembly, has decided to vote against the Palaniswami government. Congress, which has eight members in the Assembly and is an ally of DMK, is expected to finalise their stand on Saturday
