Jayalalithaa appointed Raju as Minister for Information and Publicity in May 2016. This was his first cabinet post.<ref>{{cite news |title= Jayalalithaa and her 28-member Cabinet to be sworn in on May 23 |date=21 May 2016 |work=The Hindu |url=http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/tamil-nadu/list-of-ministers-in-jayalalithaa-cabinet/article8630370.ece |access-date=2017-05-04}}</ref> Soon after Jayalalithaa died in December 2016, and despite being in the cabinet, Raju rebelled against then Chief Minister [[O.

Sasikala]] should become Chief Minister, arguing that the post and that of party general secretary, which Sasikala held, had always been combined since the party's foundation by [[M. G. Ramachandran]].<ref>{{cite news |title=3 TN ministers want CM to make way for Sasikala Natarajan |work=The Asian Age |date=2 January 2017 |url=http://www.asianage.com/india/politics/020117/3-tamil-nadu-ministers-want-cm-panneerselvam-to-make-way-for-sasikala.html |access-date=2017-05-04}}</ref> Although Sasikala did become party leader in early February, and Paneerselvan resigned as Chief Minister, she was not formally appointed to the office at the time of her conviction for criminal offences that effectively thwarted her ambitions.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/news/national/tn-governor-accepts-resignation-of-cm-o-panneerselvam-and-his-council-of-ministers/article9523821.ece |title=Governor accepts CMs resignation |work=Business Line |publisher=The Hindu |access-date=2017-05-04}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |first=Ushinor |last=Majumdar |url=http://www.outlookindia.com/website/story/what-the-sc-said-about-jayalalithaa-she-was-the-source-of-funds-for-shell-compan/297959 |title=What The SC Said About Jayalalithaa: She Was The Source Of Funds For Shell Companies |work=Outlook India |access-date=2017-05-04}}</ref>
