"I reiterate to AIADMK MLAs, please think wisely before casting your vote tomorrow. Don't buckle under pressure," he added.
Remembering the late J. Jayalalithaa, Panneerselvam urged the MLAs to safeguard former's interests and not let family rule enter Tamil politics.
"Amma continuously worked to see that family rule doesn't enter Tamil politics. She worked to achieve this goal till her last breath," he said.
