Another Setback For MK Stalin's DMK, MDMK Quits Alliance After 9 Years, Keeps Vijay TVK Move Open
MDMK ended its nine-year alliance with the DMK, citing attempts to weaken the party and a secret plan favoring the AIADMK. The decision was made at the party's general council meeting. While welcoming the Vijay government, the MDMK did not explicitly announce joining the ruling TVK front. The move comes as a setback for the DMK but is tempered by a blow to the MDMK, which has two MLAs who boycotted the meeting after indicating they would remain with the DMK.
