AIADMK to contest bypolls for 4 Assembly constituencies, says Edappadi K. Palaniswami
Edappadi K. Palaniswami, general secretary of the AIADMK, stated that his party will contest and win the upcoming byelections for four Assembly constituencies where AIADMK MLAs resigned to join the ruling TVK. He criticized the resignations as betrayals of the party, its cadre, and voters, asserting that the AIADMK is a cadre-centric party. He also highlighted the historical context of the DMK, which won with fewer seats in 1991 but later came to power, and emphasized that the AIADMK will rise again like a phoenix. He further criticized the TVK government for lacking transparency and accused it of being similar to the DMK.
