Highlights of India Today 20th February 2016, issue:
The India Today cover story of the week is about the sudden rise to power of AIADMK General Secretary VK Sasikala and how her moment of triumph has been clouded by public anger and an unprecedented revolt by former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa’s close aide, and interim Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, O Panneerselvam.
The cover story also talks extensively about Sasikala’s family using a family tree, who she banks on, her rise to power, how she could take over the party and the government in this post-truth era, and how Chinnamma made OPS feel that he is just a stand-in and drove him to revolt.
