Lok Sabha polls | The Tamil Nadu scenario | The Hindu

The AIADMK snapped ties with the BJP and pulled out of the NDA. While the INDIA bloc has suffered some setbacks nationally, in Tamil Nadu the alliance led by the DMK seems intact. The Congress and DMK have had a round of seat-sharing talks and the national party had described the talks as positive and pleasant.
Technically speaking, there is hardly any NDA in Tamil Nadu. The BJP is looking to head an alliance and it is more or less assured of getting the support of TTV Dinakaran’s AMMK, and expelled AIADMK leader O. Panneerselvam.
The AIADMK has not been able to find any significant allies after exiting the NDA. At the same time, there is a small section in the BJP that hopes to reunite with the AIADMK in the hope that it would yield better prospects in the Lok Sabha polls. However, supporters of the BJP State President K. Annamalai are opposed to any reconciliation. They feel the party has grown in Tamil Nadu and must prepare for the long term.
Seeman’s Naam Tamilar Katchi is also expected to be in the fray in all 39 Lok Sabha seats, making it a four-cornered contest.
Will there by any political realignment? Where will the smaller parties head? Will the BJP be able to improve its vote share and would the AIADMK retain its vote share?

No alliance with AIADMK. BJPshould fight on their own. Winning or loosing should not bother BJP because it is winning 2024 elections handsdown without any MPs from Tamil Nadu.😊😊😊😊

Dravidian votes will be split between DMK and AIADMK. So BJP has a big chance here

No one is talking about the finances of TN elections. Election in TN are very very costly. DMK, AIADMK and INC have very strong financier network in TN. It will take BJP some time to match their level of finance. "Ore oru quarter" voters will swing elections to any side. BJP will have to fight elections keeping their cash constraint in mind.

In odisha..very few ever see a bjp worker on groud...still 8 out of 21 taken by bjp in 2019 election..it's clear that people r voting for pm seat despite of non bjp and non hindi speaking state...and same will happen in tn..do not think that people r close their eyes on center politics ...so silent voters r ace card for bjp in tn ...

I trust only 1 political analysis. That is of Prashant Kishor. He said recently that BJP will get 7-12% votes. This could even reach 15%. This is going to realignTamil politics. DMK should therefore contest most seats and not give many seats to all allies.
