At a press meet in Chennai, Mr. P.H. Pandian claimed that Ms. Natarajan is not eligible to become the party's general secretary or the chief minister. "It's because of the blessings of late Chief Ministers Jayalalithaa and M.G. Ramachandran that Ms. Natarajan's swearing-in ceremony didn't take place," he said.
