Edappadi Palaniswami has been criticized for not being able to bring victory to the party even after capturing the top post of AIADMK. But he didn’t seem to care about that; The reason is that there are criticisms coming from within the party that he did not make any major effort to win the Lok Sabha elections.
Is it time for a trial run?
He was right to break the alliance with BJP, while he should have strengthened the alliance by joining other parties! He didn’t do that. Only the DMK, which had voted itself out of the 2019 elections, has now managed to retain it. Candidates are also not strong. Now is not the time to put on a new face and start experimenting.
Criticism faced by Edappadi Palaniswami!
He should have fielded influential seniors in every area. Even if the seniors stay aside and keep them in the contest, there would be no chance for BJP’s vote percentage to rise or for the criticisms that are said to go down on the BJP in some places. But Edappadi Palaniswami did not do it.
Will Vijay split ADMK votes?
2026 cannot be the only election for us. If we see certain percentage growth in every election then we can see big victory soon. The field of 2026 will not be so ordinary either. Vijay’s Tamil Nadu Vetri Kazhagam is a new contender. The party is likely to get a significant percentage of votes as it is a new party with movie popularity. It will also include votes for AIADMK.
United AIADMK!
Therefore, we cannot escape in 2026 without waking up in 2024. Although these are the opinions of political commentators from time to time, this is also the opinion of many people in the party. While the AIADMK is losing its vote percentage in every election, voices are also being heard that only a united AIADMK can restore its old status.
S.P. Velumani
When looking at who will do the work of coordination, they say that S.P. Velumani is trying to do so. Only after the dominance of SP Velumani-Edappadi Palaniswami within the party began to increase, did many seniors step aside and some were sidelined. Some people decided to remain in the dark and others took an alternative decision.
Senghottaiyan
In that way, in the Kongu zone, the Colochian red-eared man had lowered his voice before and crawled into Erode only. Vaithilingam, who was influential in the delta districts, went to OPS. But now there are reports from the AIADMK circles that SB Velumani is trying to bring a unified AIADMK through these two.
Vaithlingam
The OPS team is looking forward to when they can join the parent company. Sengottaiyan and Velumani are said to have met Vaithilingam, who is its commander-in-chief.
While the DMK ministers are talking about further division of the AIADMK, the work of unification has made the party workers happy. But they say anything can be said for sure depending on what the subsequent phases will lead to.
