Legislative Assembly elections are scheduled to be held in Tamil Nadu on 23 April 2026 to elect all 234 members of the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly. The votes will be counted and the results will be declared on 4 May 2026.

Background

Elections to a State legislative assemblies in India are usually held once in five years, and the members of the legislative assembly are directly elected to serve five year terms from single-member constituencies. The previous assembly elections were held in April 2021 to elect the 234 members of the 16th Tamil Nadu Assembly, and the tenure of the assembly ends on 10 May 2026.[2] In the previous election, the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK)-led Secular Progressive Alliance (SPA) formed the state government after winning 159 of the 234 seats, and M. K. Stalin sworn in as the chief minister.[3][4] The All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK), which won 66 seats, became the principal opposition party and its leader Edappadi K. Palaniswami was elected and served as the leader of the opposition.[5]

In June 2022, three members–O. Panneerselvam, P. H. Manoj Pandian, and R. Vaithilingam were expelled from the AIADMK.[6] In August 2022, P. Ayyappan of the AIADMK also joined the expelled faction.[7] K. A. Sengottaiyan was expelled from AIADMK in October 2025,[8] and subsequently resigned from his position as a member of the assembly in November 2025.[9] Manoj Pandian resigned as a member of the assembly in November 2025 and joined the DMK,[10] with Vaithilingam following suit in January 2026.[11] In late 2025, the Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK) split into two factions, with three members expressing support to Anbumani Ramadoss and two members supporting S. Ramadoss.[12][13] After Anbumani was recognised as the official leader of the PMK, Ramadoss formed a splinter faction of the PMK.[14] Two members–T. K. Amulkandasami (AIADMK) and K. Ponnusamy (DMK) died on 21 June 2025 and 23 October 2025 respectively.[15][16] On 27 February 2026, Pannerselvam and Ayyappan resigned from the assembly and joined the DMK.[17]

Secular Progressive Alliance

On 1 June 2025, DMK president and chief minister M. K. Stalin launched "Oraniyil Tamil Nadu" (Tamil Nadu as one team), an enrollment drive to add new party members and urged the party cadres to enroll at least 30% of voters in each polling booth to the party through a door-to-door outreach.[97][98] The party released a song for its campaign with the theme "Stalin Thodarattum, Tamil Nadu Vellattum" (Let Stalin continue, Let Tamil Nadu triumph), expressing confidence in forming the government again.[99]

Manifesto

The manifesto proposed by DMK includes a range of welfare, infrastructure, federalism, Centre–State relations, and law and order. Under law and order, it included the introduction of capital punishment for crimes against children below eight years of age.Under welfare schemes, provision of ₹8,000 coupons for non–income tax-paying homemakers to purchase household appliances, extension of the Chief Minister’s Breakfast Scheme up to Class 8, distribution of laptops to all college students, enhancement of the monthly entitlement for women from ₹1,000 to ₹2,000, increase in old-age pension from ₹1,200 to ₹2,000, and provision of ₹2,500 for persons with disabilities, alongside expanding coverage under the Chief Minister’s Comprehensive Health Insurance Scheme from ₹5 lakh to ₹15 lakh. In infrastructure and economic measures, it proposed construction of 10 lakh houses over five years, procurement of 10,000 new buses, development of high-quality bus shelters, introduction of mini-bus services in remote areas, establishment of a cargo terminal at Thoothukudi, expansion of Coimbatore Airport, ₹10,000 crore for beautification of roads in corporations, future-ready global cities to Coimbatore, Salem, Madurai, and Tiruchirappalli, 20% of green areas and parks in urban areas, policy aims to attract foreign investment of ₹18 lakh crore, and creation of employment opportunities for around 50 lakh youth. In the agriculture sectors, it included provision of modern pump sets to 20 lakh farmers without electricity meters, increase in procurement price of paddy and sugarcane, raising milk procurement price to ₹5 per litre, desilting of 10,500 km of C and D category irrigation canals in the Cauvery delta districts and 5,000 km in other districts, and enhancement of financial assistance to fishermen during fishing ban and low-catch periods. It also proposed interest-free loans up to ₹5 lakh for self-help groups. In the areas of federalism and Centre–State relations, it included establishing a library in Pollachi to promote awareness of the anti-Hindi imposition movement among younger generations.[100]

AIADMK-led Alliance

On 7 July 2025, AIADMK general secretary Palaniswami launched a statewide campaign with the slogan "Makkalai Kaappom, Thamizhagathai Meetpom" (Let's Protect the People, Let's Save Tamil Nadu).[101][102]

Manifesto

On 24 March 2026, AIADMK general secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami released election manifesto. The manifesto proposed a range of welfare and economic measures, including a monthly assistance of ₹2,000 for women, a ₹10,000 relief payment per family to address rising prices, and an increase in pension benefits to ₹2,000 for senior citizens. It also outlined the waiver of education and crop loans, provision of free refrigerators and free LPG cylinders, and extension of free bus travel to men. In the education and healthcare sectors, the party proposed increasing the NEET quota for government school students to 10% and ensuring full coverage of major medical expenses for major treatments. Additional measures included subsidies for solar power installations, revival of the marriage assistance (gold) scheme and Amma Clinics, gradual implementation of prohibition by closing liquor shops in phases, higher minimum support prices for paddy and sugarcane, and provision of free pulses and cooking oil through the Public Distribution System.[103]

Others

On 13 September 2025, TVK president Vijay launched his party's election campaign in Tiruchirappalli, with subsequent rallies planned on weekends.[104][105] However, following a crowd crush that resulted in the deaths of 41 people and injuries to 80-120 others, during a political rally hosted by TVK in Karur, he suspended the campaign temporarily.[106][107]

Adhava Arjun, General Secretary of TVK, made controversial remarks about actor Rajinikanth, stating that he had aspired to enter Tamil Nadu politics but refrained due to alleged pressure from the DMK. He also compared Rajinikanth with TVK leader Vijay, asserting that Vijay was more courageous.[108][109] The remarks drew widespread criticism and condemnation from various political parties and leaders across Tamil Nadu, including the leader of the opposition Edappadi K. Palaniswami. Vijay did not issue any public response to the controversy. Rajinikanth, however reacted by thanking those who condemned the remarks and stated "Time doesn't speak, but it waits and gives the answer".[110][111][112]

Following an order of the Madras High Court,[113] the Government of Tamil Nadu announced new rules and guidelines for political rallies in the state in January 2026.[114]
