As Tamil Nadu gears up for Assembly polls, the NDA alliance under AIADMK has locked in a bold seat-sharing pact. AIADMK claims the lion’s share with 160-170 seats, positioning itself to form government without leaning heavily on partners. This comes amid intense backroom negotiations triggered by EPS’s Delhi meetings with BJP top brass.
The formula marks a leap for BJP, eyeing 30 constituencies compared to 20 previously. PMK bags 17, AMMK nine, and TMC three. Allies might adopt major party symbols, adding tactical depth. Nominations kick off March 30, ending April 6, heightening the stakes.
Drawing from 2021’s setbacks, where AIADMK led opposition but lacked numbers, this plan targets winnable seats to surpass the 118 majority. Shah’s oversight ensures seamless coordination. Internal shifts in PMK and AMMK’s inclusion inject fresh energy, making the contest unpredictable. Voters watch closely as alliances reshape the battleground, with NDA betting big on unity and dominance.
