In Tamil Nadu, S Kamaraj, the sole MLA from the AMMK party, is facing disqualification for his support of Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay's TVK government during a crucial floor test on May 13. The AMMK, which previously aligned with the AIADMK and the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA), only secured the Mannargudi constituency in the recent elections. Kamaraj's vote contributed to Vijay's successful floor test, where the government received 144 votes in favor. Following this, AMMK chief TTV Dhinakaran announced Kamaraj's expulsion from the party and indicated plans to legally challenge his support for the TVK government, labeling it as a case of 'horse-trading.' Dhinakaran emphasized the importance of party unity and invoked the legacy of AIADMK leaders M G Ramachandran and J Jayalalithaa. Meanwhile, Vijay's government also gained support from 25 rebel AIADMK MLAs, who were later expelled from their party, highlighting the ongoing turmoil within the AIADMK under the leadership of Edappadi K Palaniswami, who faces accusations of trying to collaborate with the DMK.
