The latest move came just one day after three other AIADMK MLAs resigned from their posts. With another MLA resigns in Tamil Nadu, the total number of resignations from the party has now reached four in just two days. Reports suggest the rebel MLAs supported the ruling TVK government led by Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay during recent Assembly developments.

AIADMK leaders strongly criticised the resignations and accused the ruling party of encouraging defections. Political analysts believe the crisis could weaken the opposition party further and may even lead to more by-elections in the coming months.

The Speaker is expected to take a final decision on the resignation after reviewing the letter and legal procedures.

Around 30 AIADMK MLAs are believed to be backing the rebel group. They said they would vote in favor of Vijay’s government during the upcoming floor test in the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly. This support is expected to increase the government’s numbers and ensure stability.

With the new backing, the ruling alliance led by Vijay could reach a strength of nearly 150 MLAs in the 234-member assembly. The development comes just days after Vijay became Chief Minister following the 2026 election that changed the state’s political landscape. The AIADMK Split Boosts CM Vijay Strength and strengthens his position in the state government.

The split has pushed the AIADMK, led by former Chief Minister Edappadi K. Palaniswami, into a fresh political crisis. Political observers say the shift in support may reshape alliances in Tamil Nadu politics in the coming months.
