Sponsored Links
  • Tamil Nadu Assembly Election began from 12th of March, 2021 following the polling to be held from 6th of April this year in a single phase itself.
  • The major parties standing for the contest are DMK (DravidaMunnetraKazhagam) and AIADMK (All India Anna DravidaMunnetraKazhagam), being the rivals since the year 1967.
  • Last time, when Tamil Nadu conducted its assembly election, both M Karunanidhi and J Jayalalithaa were present. But this is the first when the contest will take place without these both veterans. Jayalalithaa died in December 2016 and Karunanidhi passed away in August 2018.
  • However, there is a possibility of BJP witnessed this year standing as another rival against DMK because the ruling party AIADMK made an ally with the Bhartiya Janata Party.
  • The results for this election shall be announced on May 2, 2021.
  • Tamil Nadu used to follow a pattern of alternating power between the DMK and AIADMK, but Jayalalithaa broke it by re-establishing AIADMK’s rule in the 2016 Assembly election. Jayalalithaa-led AIADMK won 135 seats, whereas DMK won 88.
  • The BJP was not able to win a single seat in the last Assembly election, but due to added pressure on DMK leader MK Stalin and AIADMK’s E Palaniswami, the six remaining seats were won by their allies.
  • Jayalalithaa’s aide VK Sasikala decided to leave the politics last month on March, leaving TTV Dhinakaranto contest the election alone on behalf of Amma MakkalMunnetraKazhagam (AMMK).
  • Actor-politician Kamal Haasan has positioned his party called MakkalNeedhiMaiam(MNM)
  • On the other hand, Actor Rajinikanth also decided to opt out of the political arena.
