Figure-Juggling Begins in Tamil Nadu: In Tamil Nadu, all the equations were thrown into disarray when the mandate of power came in favor of TVK, the party formed three years ago. In such a situation, the AIADMK, which was dreaming of a change in power, and the Stalin-led DMK government, which was dreaming of returning to power, had to face a huge setback. Now the news is that both these parties are starting talks together secretly. Both the parties seem to be trying to gather allies and form the government.
At present all this is being done under a secret plan. The reason for this is that TVK has become a big party by winning 108 seats, it has also got the support of Congress, but still 6 seats are needed for majority. Here, after staking claim to form the government before the Governor, TVK has been instructed to bring majority. At the same time, on the news of alliance with TVK, AIADMK flatly refused saying that it will not go with them under any circumstances.
News of secret talks between the two diametrically opposed parties
India Today, quoting sources, has claimed that secret talks have started with DMK and its old rival AIADMK. This is a rare move between the two parties. Traditionally these two parties have been opposed to each other. AIADMK, quoting sources, has confirmed that talks have taken place, but no official confirmation of any success has been made yet. In such a situation, it is natural to raise the question whether DMK is ready for this step. This is considered to be an unprecedented change in the politics of Tamil Nadu. DMK has got 59 seats. Whereas, AIADMK has got 47 seats.
News of split in AIADMK, many MLAs want to go with Vijay faction
Regarding AIADMK, DMK spokesperson TKS Elangovan has told news agency ANI that there has been a split within AIADMK also. I think AIADMK people are interested in going with Vijay’s faction. Let’s see. At the same time, regarding VCK and leftist parties, it has been said that they are with us. He came to meet our leader today and yesterday also.
Still, cooperation is lagging behind in the juggling of figures.
At present, if we look at the majority factor, even if DMK and AIADMK come together, both of them together have only 106 MLAs. In such a situation, this alliance also seems far away from the majority figure to form the government. The majority figure is 118.
Important information related to Tamil Nadu politics
AIADMK was formed in the year 1972. At that time MP Ramachandran was expelled from DMK. He is also known as MGR. This decision was taken by party president M Karunanidhi. At that time the party was accused of corruption. Since then both the Dravidian parties remained diametrically opposed to each other for decades. It changed the entire political landscape of Tamil Nadu and set a different narrative in the state.
