Tamil Nadu politics has taken a significant turn. Following political differences between former Chief Ministers O. Panneerselvam (OPS) and Edappadi K. Palaniswami (EPS), the rebellion within the Palaniswami faction appears to be nearing its end. According to sources, nearly 10 dissident MLAs of the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) have decided to rejoin the Palaniswami faction, raising hopes of greater unity within the party.
The political development traces back to 2021, when Palaniswami and OPS clashed over the party’s leadership, leading to a split between the two factions. However, in recent months, party leadership has intensified efforts to reunite both groups. With these MLAs returning, there is now a stronger likelihood of stability within the party. Sources say the MLAs have rejoined the Palaniswami faction and decided to support the party’s decisions.
