Recent discussions among senior AIADMK leaders suggest a potential alliance for the upcoming 2026 Assembly elections may be contingent on a caste-census. While the general sentiment within the party leans towards a cautious approach, Edappadi K. Palaniswami is perceived as potentially less inclined to support the proposed reservation for Vanniyars. DMK is reportedly exploring strategies to influence potential alliance partners to guarantee the implementation of a caste-census. This initiative would be viewed as a significant factor in the potential outcome of the election.
