In a major blow to the opposition AIADMK in Tamil Nadu, Ambasamudram MLA Esakki Subaya resigned and joined the ruling TVK party led by Vijay. He is the fourth MLA from the rebel camp to switch sides. Following this, AIADMK's strength in the 234-member assembly has dropped from 47 to 43. While AIADMK leaders have accused TVK of horse-trading and questioned the validity of accepting resignations amid pending disqualification petitions, the rebel movement continues to weaken the opposition's hold. https://sambad.in/india-and-beyond/aiadmk-mla-joins-tvk-vijay-tamil-nadu-political-crisis-11877236 #creator program
