Explainer: Why AIADMK's Poor Show Continues In Lok Sabha Elections
AIADMK, Tamil Nadu's principal opposition party, has posted one of its worst electoral performances in the just concluded Lok Sabha polls.
Continuing to receive electoral setbacks ever since its supremo J Jayalaithaa passed away in 2016, the party drew a blank this year, losing all the 34 Lok Sabha seats it contested, including Theni that it had won in 2019. Its candidates finished a poor third in 11 constituencies, while in 7 seats, the party lost its deposit.
