Why TVK is eager to woo AIADMK cadre

Published by Parlour News

Four former AIADMK Ministers — M.C. Sampath, N.R. Sivapathi, Kadambur C. Raju, and Udumalai K. Radhakrishnan — joined the TVK at its headquarters in Panaiyur on the outskirts of Chennai in the presence of party general secretary and Minister for Rural Development and Water Resources N. Anand and a few other Ministers on June 6, 2026. Photo: Special Arrangement The recent defection of a large number of former Ministers and legislators belonging to the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) to the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) has prompted many to wonder whether the ruling party is seeking to build its organisational network through these latest recruits. Even though it is well known that the Vijay Makkal Iyakkam (VMI), a voluntary organisation made up of newly elected Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay’s fans, has provided the much-needed manpower for the TVK, there is a perception in certain quarters that the ruling party has not yet acquired enough strength on the ground. Under such circumstances, it is quite natural that the TVK follows an “open-door policy” …

Former Chief Minister M.K. Stalin welcomes leaders of other parties into the DMK on Saturday | Photo Credit: X/@mkstalin DMK president M.K. Stalin on Saturday (June 6, 2026) called upon party workers to take a pledge to bring down the Tamilaga Vetri Kazhagam (TVK) government, which he said was surviving with the support of parties that were once part of the DMK-led alliance and had won seats in the Assembly. “The TVK government is, in a way, being sustained by our support because our former alliance partners are backing it. These are the very parties that wanted us to win the election. Their leaders themselves clarified that they had consulted me before extending support to the TVK. I told them that they had the democratic right to take such a decision,” he said, while admitting cadres from various parties into the DMK. Mr. Stalin said his objective was to prevent the imposition of Governor’s Rule in Tamil Nadu, which, he alleged, would effectively enable the BJP to rule the State through the Governor. “But soon, …

“The Congress Legislature Party had met in Thiruvananthapuram on May 7 and had unanimously resolved to authorise the Congress president to appoint the new leader of the CLP in the state of Keralam. Accordingly, the Congress president has held extensive discussions … Based on all these discussions, it has been decided that V D Satheesan be appointed as the leader of the CLP,” AICC’s Kerala in-charge Deepa Dasmunsi announced here, flanked by central observers Ajay Maken and Mukul Wasnik and Congress communications head Jairam Ramesh. From tacitly allowing Venugopal a week ago to enter the CM race to picking Satheesan for the post, the Congress high command’s 360-degree turn is unprecedented in its recent political history. And the unusual turn of events does not end there. Breaking the long-held tradition of giving weightage to the views of the MLAs, which complicated matters, giving in to pressure from allies in picking its CLP leader, and heeding perceived public sentiment, there were many twists that the leadership had not encountered in the past.

Need dedicated administration cadre for Ladakh: LG Saxena writes to MHA

Published by Parlour News

The lieutenant governor of Ladakh, Vinai Kumar Saxena, has sent a proposal to the ministry of home affairs (MHA) to establish a dedicated administrative service cadre to address the shortage of officers in the union territory, people familiar with the development said. Need dedicated administration cadre for Ladakh: LG Saxena writes to MHA This is the first time a Ladakh Subordinate Administrative Service (LSAS) cadre has been mooted — and the move could address one of the demands of groups that have been seeking more autonomy for the UT. Currently, Ladakh, carved out of Jammu & Kashmir as a separate UT after the abrogation of article 370 has to depend on the J&K Administrative Service (JKAS) as well as deputation for its requirement of officers. The strategically important region is facing acute shortages, particularly in Group ‘B’ gazetted level administrative posts due to non-filling of direct recruitment vacancies under JKAS, non-filling of promotion quota posts by JKAS and continued dependence on deputation from J&K. The new proposal, sent to Union home secretary Govind Mohan a …

I have said this many times… I say it again… those who are left drop the weapons. The …
