Losing the ADMK in its alliance would cost BJP with more struggles and challenges to survive in a state like Tamil Nadu, where the anti-BJP electorate is getting rampant.
The decision has come days after several top ADMK leaders hinted about the exit as they scathingly attacked Tamil Nadu BJP chief Annamalai for his incessant defamatory remarks against the ADMK.
ADMK has been a largest ally of BJP and it was evident when EPS was seated next to Prime Minister Modi in a recently-held NDA meeting where the allied parties of BJP took part.
O P Ravindranath Kumar is the lone MP of ADMK in Lok Sabha and as his victory has been put on hold, the party will most likely lose its representation in the Lok Sabha.
The crucial events that are unfolding from the coalition for the past two days have marked a fresh political friction that would possibly skew the alliance ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
Tamil Nadu's Opposition party ADMK has been bracing up a back-to-back trouble as two former ministers and senior leaders are in uphill battle over serious legal issues.
Edappadi Palaniswami has backtracked his decision and announced that the party's lone candidate in Karnataka would pull out from the contest, which would make ADMK come out of the race in Karnataka.
