The [[J. Jayalalithaa]] led [[All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam]] (AIADMK) government, which had been in power since 1991 was beset with corruption scandals and public discontent. A series of corruption scandals, a growing reputation for high handedness and an extravagant public wedding for Jayalalithaa's foster son Sudhakaran all combined to erode the AIADMK support base and the goodwill she had enjoyed with the electorate in the [[1991 Tamil Nadu state assembly election|1991 elections]].<ref name="bhagat">{{cite news | last= Bhagat| first= Rasheeda | title=Advantage Jayalalitha?   | date=4 April 2001 | url =http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/2001/04/04/stories/040455ju.htm| work =[[Business Line]]| access-date = 2010-01-18}}</ref><ref name="outlook1">{{cite news | last= Panneerselvan| first= A.

===Formation of TMC===
===Formation of TMC===
The AIADMK's alliance with [[Indian National Congress]] (INC), which had helped it to win the 1991 elections ran into trouble midway through the AIADMK's term. J. Jayalalithaa terminated the alliance and Congress served as the principal opposition party in the [[Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly]]. When the 1996 elections drew closer, it was expected that the Congress would contest the elections in alliance with the DMK. However against the wishes of the Tamil Nadu state unit of the Congress, the national congress leader (and then Indian prime minister) [[P. V. Narasimha Rao]] announced that the Congress would ally with the AIADMK. This led to a split in the Tamil Nadu Congress with a majority of the party workers and cadre forming the [[Tamil Maanila Congress]] (TMC) led by [[G. K. Moopanar]]. The TMC contested the elections in alliance with the DMK.<ref name="fontline2">{{cite news | last= Subramanian| first= T.

===Coalitions===
===Coalitions===
There were four main coalitions in the 1996 elections. The DMK-TMC front which also included the [[Communist Party of India]] (CPI) and the AIADMK-Congress front were the main political groupings in the state. Both fronts had a number of smaller parties as constituents. The [[Indian National League]] and the [[All India Forward Bloc]] were part of the DMK front, while the AIADMK front also had Muslim Leagues, Forward Block, All India Republic Party, Uzhavar Uzhaippalar Katchi and United Communist Party. Apart from these two fronts, there was a MDMK led coalition which included the [[Communist Party of India (Marxist)]] (CPM), the [[Janata Dal]] (JD) and the [[Samajwadi Janata Party (Rashtriya)|Samajwadi Janata Party]] (SJP). The alliance between [[Pattali Makkal Katchi]] (PMK) and [[All India Indira Congress (Tiwari)]] (Tiwari Congress) led by [[Vazhappady K. Ramamurthy|''Vazhappady'' Ramamurthy]] was the fourth coalition that contested the elections. Initially, before the TMC was formed, the DMK put together a seven party alliance comprising itself, PMK, CPI, Tiwari Congress and a few other parties. However, this alliance fell through when the Tiwari Congress and PMK left the front after differences between Karunanidhi and Ramamurthy. After this, [[Cho Ramaswamy]] (editor of ''[[Thuglak]]'') played a vital role in bringing together the DMK-TMC coalition and obtaining actor Rajinikanth's support for it.<ref name="hindu1">{{cite news | title=  "Nenjukku Neethi" resumes    | date= 5 May 2008 | url =http://www.hindu.com/2008/05/05/stories/2008050560331000.htm| archive-url =https://web.archive.org/web/20080508173318/http://www.hindu.com/2008/05/05/stories/2008050560331000.htm| url-status =dead| archive-date =8 May 2008| work =[[The Hindu]]| access-date = 2010-01-21}}</ref><ref name="outlook5">{{cite news | last= Anand| first= S. | title=A Dash Of Saffron In His Broth | date=15 April 2002 | url =http://www.outlookindia.com/article.aspx?215225| work =[[Outlook (Indian magazine)|Outlook]]| access-date = 2010-01-18}}</ref> There were a few other smaller political formations and parties contesting the election – the [[Bharatiya Janata Party]] (BJP) contested the elections alone; [[Subramanian Swamy]]'s [[Janata Party]] contested in alliance with the caste organisation Devendra Kula Vellar Sangam led by [[Dalit]] leader [[K.

==Opinion poll trends==
In the 1996 election, strong anti-incumbency against Jayalalithaa and the strength of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam – Tamil Maanila Congress alliance made their victory predictable. A poll by [[India Today]] with [[Prannoy Roy]] and Dorab R. Sopariwala projected 11–37 seats for the AIADMK, but it won only four.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=தமிழ்நாட்டில் தேர்தல் கருத்துக் கணிப்புகள் எந்த அளவுக்கு சரியாக இருந்துள்ளன?|url=https://www.bbc.com/tamil/articles/cgee9xznre8o|access-date=4 June 2024 |work=BBC tamil|date=3 June 2024|language=ta}}&lt;/ref&gt;
 
A survey conducted by the [[Centre for the Study of Developing Societies|CSDS]] in collaboration with [[NDTV]] and Frontline found that 60% of the electorate was “not satisfied at all” with then incumbent Jayalalithaa regime, while only 13% reported being “very satisfied.”&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=https://frontline.thehindu.com/politics/article30274449.ece|title=A matter of arithmetic|date=26 May 2001|work=Frontline|access-date=2001-05-26}}&lt;/ref&gt;
 
==Voting and results==
Polling took place on 2 May 1996 and results were announced on 12 May. The turnout among registered voters was 66.95%. The assembly elections were held simultaneously along with the [[1996 Indian general election in Tamil Nadu|1996 Indian general election]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web

M. Karunanidhi
DMK

The eleventh legislative assembly election of Tamil Nadu was held on 2 May 1996 to elect members from 234 constituencies for the state legislature. The Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) led front won the election securing 221 seats in the 234 seat Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly, and its leader M. Karunanidhi, became the chief minister.

In the tenth Tamil Nadu assembly, All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) held the majority with its leader J. Jayalalithaa as the chief minister. The elections resulted in a landslide defeat for the incumbent government, with the AIADMK winning only four seats. Outgoing chief minister Jayalalithaa lost the election from the Bargur, and became the first incumbent chief minister since M. Bakthavatsalam in 1967 to lose the elections.

Background

Anti-Incumbency

The J. Jayalalithaa led All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) government, which had been in power since 1991 was beset with corruption scandals and public discontent. A series of corruption scandals, a growing reputation for high handedness and an extravagant public wedding for Jayalalithaa's foster son Sudhakaran all combined to erode the AIADMK support base and the goodwill she had enjoyed with the electorate in the 1991 elections.<ref name="bhagat">Bhagat, Rasheeda (4 April 2001).

Formation of TMC

The AIADMK's alliance with Indian National Congress (INC), which had helped it to win the 1991 elections ran into trouble midway through the AIADMK's term. J. Jayalalithaa terminated the alliance and Congress served as the principal opposition party in the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly. When the 1996 elections drew closer, it was expected that the Congress would contest the elections in alliance with the DMK. However against the wishes of the Tamil Nadu state unit of the Congress, the national congress leader (and then Indian prime minister) P. V. Narasimha Rao announced that the Congress would ally with the AIADMK. This led to a split in the Tamil Nadu Congress with a majority of the party workers and cadre forming the Tamil Maanila Congress (TMC) led by G. K. Moopanar. The TMC contested the elections in alliance with the DMK.<ref name="fontline2">Subramanian, T. S. (15 September 2001). "Crusading Congressman". Frontline. Archived from the original on 7 November 2012. Retrieved 18 January 2010.</ref><ref name="palanithurai"/>

Formation of MDMK

In 1993, the DMK suffered a split when one of its more prominent second rung leaders, Vaiko was expelled from the party membership. The next year Vaiko floated a new party – the Marumalarchi Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (MDMK).<ref name="frontline1">Subramanian, T. S. (14 August 1999). "Hurdles in Tamil Nadu". Frontline.

Archived from the original on 20 January 2024. Retrieved 18 January 2010.</ref>

Coalitions

There were four main coalitions in the 1996 elections. The DMK-TMC front which also included the Communist Party of India (CPI) and the AIADMK-Congress front were the main political groupings in the state. Both fronts had a number of smaller parties as constituents. The Indian National League and the All India Forward Bloc were part of the DMK front, while the AIADMK front also had Muslim Leagues, Forward Block, All India Republic Party, Uzhavar Uzhaippalar Katchi and United Communist Party. Apart from these two fronts, there was a MDMK led coalition which included the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPM), the Janata Dal (JD) and the Samajwadi Janata Party (SJP). The alliance between Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK) and All India Indira Congress (Tiwari) (Tiwari Congress) led by Vazhappady Ramamurthy was the fourth coalition that contested the elections. Initially, before the TMC was formed, the DMK put together a seven party alliance comprising itself, PMK, CPI, Tiwari Congress and a few other parties. However, this alliance fell through when the Tiwari Congress and PMK left the front after differences between Karunanidhi and Ramamurthy. After this, Cho Ramaswamy (editor of Thuglak) played a vital role in bringing together the DMK-TMC coalition and obtaining actor Rajinikanth's support for it.<ref name="hindu1">""Nenjukku Neethi" resumes".

Rajinikanth's support

The DMK-TMC alliance enlisted the popular Tamil film actor Rajinikanth to campaign against the AIADMK in the elections. Rajinikanth declared his support for the DMK-TMC combine and members of his numerous fan clubs campaigned for the DMK front across Tamil Nadu. In a widely watched campaign appearance broadcast in Sun TV, he declared "even God cannot save Tamil Nadu if AIADMK returns to power".Rajinikanth's support gave enormous victory to DMK<ref name="asiantribune">Ethiraj, Gopal (14 December 2009).

Opinion poll trends

In the 1996 election, strong anti-incumbency against Jayalalithaa and the strength of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam – Tamil Maanila Congress alliance made their victory predictable. A poll by India Today with Prannoy Roy and Dorab R. Sopariwala projected 11–37 seats for the AIADMK, but it won only four.<ref>"தமிழ்நாட்டில் தேர்தல் கருத்துக் கணிப்புகள் எந்த அளவுக்கு சரியாக இருந்துள்ளன?". BBC tamil (in தமிழ்). 3 June 2024. Retrieved 4 June 2024.</ref>

A survey conducted by the CSDS in collaboration with NDTV and Frontline found that 60% of the electorate was “not satisfied at all” with then incumbent Jayalalithaa regime, while only 13% reported being “very satisfied.”<ref>"A matter of arithmetic". Frontline. 26 May 2001. Retrieved 26 May 2001.</ref>

Voting and results

Polling took place on 2 May 1996 and results were announced on 12 May. The turnout among registered voters was 66.95%. The assembly elections were held simultaneously along with the 1996 Indian general election.<ref>Election Commission of India. "1996 Election Statistical Report" (PDF).

Impact

AIADMK suffered a rout in the elections. Most of sitting ministers of the AIADMK government, including the chief minister Jayalalithaa lost their seats. Jayalalithaa lost to DMK's E. G. Sugavanam by a margin of 8,366 votes in the Bargur constituency. A year after the election, the AIADMK split, when a faction led by the Arantaki MLA Su. Thirunavukkarasar broke away from the party. The MDMK which was contesting its first statewide elections since its formation in 1994 drew a blank. MDMK leader Vaiko was defeated in both the Vilathikulam Assembly constituency and the Sivakasi parliamentary constituency. This election also saw the PMK electing four members to the assembly. The massive victory of the DMK-TMC-CPI combine in the assembly elections spilled over to the parliamentary elections. The coalition was able to win all 39 parliamentary seats in Tamil Nadu and the lone parliamentary seat in the nearby Pondicherry. This tally of 40 seats enabled the DMK-TMC combine to be part of the United Front government during 1996–98.<ref name="bhagat"/><ref name="tehelka"/><ref name="businessline2"/><ref name="outlook4">Panneerselvan, A.
