The Madurantakam and Dharapuram by-elections have turned into a key political contest between AIADMK, TVK and DMK. Both seats were won by AIADMK in the 2026 Assembly election, but the sitting MLAs later resigned and joined TVK, making the defections a central issue in the bypoll campaign. AIADMK General Secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami (EPS) has launched an aggressive campaign, seeking to win back the two constituencies and repeatedly targeting the TVK government. EPS has also spoken about the possibility of an anti-TVK political alignment, while the PMK has chosen not to support any party in these by-elections.For TVK and CM Vijay, these are the party’s first by-elections after forming the government. The party has re-nominated the two former AIADMK MLAs, while DMK has fielded its own candidates in both constituencies. The campaign has increasingly focused on the defections, governance and the changing political equations between the three parties. So, what is the political calculation behind EPS’s campaign? Can AIADMK turn the defection issue into electoral support? How is Vijay’s TVK responding, and what role does DMK play in this three-way contest?In this episode of IPS, we examine EPS’s strategy, AIADMK’s challenges and the evolving political battle between TVK, DMK and AIADMK ahead of the by-elections.
