										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;If he fails to act, over 30 MLAs could break away and extend their support to Vijay,&#8221; said unnamed AIADMK MLAs regarding CV Shanmugam&#8217;s leadership. Internal dissent within the AIADMK is growing as a faction of MLAs seeks to support Vijay&#8217;s TVK for government formation.</p>
<p>CV Shanmugam is a Rajya Sabha MP and a senior leader in AIADMK. His office recently hosted over two-thirds of AIADMK MLAs to discuss political strategies. The Tamil Nadu elections resulted in a fractured mandate, with TVK emerging as the single largest party with <strong>108 seats</strong>.</strong></p>
<p>AIADMK won <strong>47 seats</strong> in the same elections, falling short of the majority mark of <strong>118 seats</strong> needed in the Tamil Nadu Assembly, which consists of <strong>234 members</strong>. This situation has created a complex landscape for potential coalition governments.</p>
<p>The Congress has extended conditional support to TVK for government formation. However, some leaders express skepticism about this alliance. &#8220;The perception that is out in the entire country is that Congress cannot be trusted,&#8221; stated DMK spokesperson Saravanan Annadurai.</p>
<p>Vijay&#8217;s TVK is currently <strong>10 seats short</strong> of a majority in the Assembly. The dynamics among political alliances are shifting rapidly as parties navigate this new reality.</p>
<p>The next steps remain uncertain. The internal dissent within AIADMK regarding support for TVK may lead to significant changes in Tamil Nadu&#8217;s political landscape.</p>
