CHENNAI, June 7 -- The exodus of prominent faces from the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) continued on Saturday, with four former ministers and six former MLAs joining the ruling Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), citing lack of respect. The four former lawmakers - Kadambur Raju, Udumalai Radhakrishnan, M C Sampath, N R Sivapathy - joined the ruling party in the presence of TVK leaders N Anand and Aadhav Arjuna at the party's office in Chennai. Six former AIADMK MLAs - Sundararaj (Sankagiri), Rajamuthu (Veerapandi), Manraj (Srivilliputhur), Rajavarman (Sathur), Panneerselvam (Kalasapakkam), Govindasamy (Pappiratipatti) - and their supporters have also joined TVK. Similarly, former MP A Ilavarasan also joined the TVK and two former Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) MLAs - P Kamaraj and M S Shanmugam - have also joined the ruling party. Udumalai Radhakrishnan, who served as a minister in the late AIADMK supremo J Jayalalithaa's cabinet, said he took the decision because party leaders had faced several issues under the leadership of the AIADMK chief Edappadi K Palaniswami over the last five years. "We only need respect and we do not need any other posts," he said, adding that the AIADMK maintained a "strict discipline" only during the late Jayalalithaa's regime. Since the May 4 assembly election result, the AIADMK has been facing a series of setbacks. On May 25, four AIADMK MLAs joined the TVK within days of being elected to the assembly. Taking potshots at the TVK, former chief minister and DMK president MK Stalin said, "Those who projected themselves as a clean force have now been exposed..." Palaniswami called the move "vulgar politics" and accused the ruling party of being involved "horse-trading." TVK minister KA Sengottaiyan dismissed the charges, saying, "Horse-trading did not take place in the TVK...I did not persuade anyone to join."...
