| | Thirunavukkarasu booted out of AIADMK again |
 | | As was his wont immediately after the two expulsions in 1988 and 1990, one could now expect a series of charges from him against Jayalalitha on her meanness, selfishness, and corruption. | | | In the battle for his mantle that followed between late Janaki Ramachandran (widow of MGR) and Jayalalitha, it was Thirunavukkarasu who masterminded the moves of Jayalalitha, a novice to political games at that time. | | | Thirunavukkarasu, as expected, carried a vilification campaign against Jayalalitha through his speeches and articles. |
