Twitter calls Feb 5 a 'black day' as Sasikala named new Tamil Nadu CM

Chennai: Massive protests are likely across Tamil Nadu over the elevation of Sasikala as the next chief minister of the state, after O. Panneerselvam resigned on Sunday.

People rushed to micro-blogging site Twitter in huge numbers to condemn the decision of the AIADMK MLAs, who elected Sasikala as the leader of legislators in the assembly.

Thousands of people have tweeted "#TNSaysNo2Sasi" to oppose the development. People are even demanding for re-election in the state as they do not consider Sasikala eligible enough for ruling over the state.

A few have appealed to the people of Tamil Nadu to hit the roads again to as they did to get approval for holding their religious festival 'Jallikattu'.

A disheartened twitter user tweeted that AIADMK died on the same day, when Late J. Jayalalithaa passed away.

Here we have compiled a few of the tweets on the micro-blogging site. Check in next slides:
