A resolution passed by the AIADMK at a meeting of its general council in September 2017, which among other things, had removed V K Sasikala from the post of the party`s general secretary, was upheld by a lower court here on Monday.

City Civil Court IV Additional Judge J Sridevi upheld the resolution, while dismissing an application from Sasikala challenging the same and allowing those from AIADMK coordinator O Panneerselvam and joint coordinator K Palaniswami.
