DMK — The Look Back

DMK crashed from 133 seats in 2021 to 59 in 2026, losing power after just one term. MK Stalin lost his own Kolathur seat — only the second sitting TN Chief Minister to lose their constituency in history after Jayalalithaa in 1996. What went so wrong, so fast — and how does DMK rebuild from opposition?

Our full analysis — what went wrong, what the seat-level data shows, and what must change before 2031 — is being researched and written. Follow @mugamariyaan on 𝕏 to get it first.
