3 AIADMK MLAs resign, meet CM Vijay's minister amid speculation of joining TVK

The AIADMK is facing a political crisis in Tamil Nadu as three of its Members of the Legislative Assembly have officially resigned from their positions. The legislators submitted their resignation letters to the state assembly Speaker, leading to speculation about a political shift. Following their resignations, the former AIADMK members held a meeting with a state cabinet minister, initiating rumours of a potential defection to the ruling TVK. The departure of these legislators indicates an exodus from the opposition party. With these constituencies now vacant, by-polls are expected to be announced and conducted within the next six months.
