The AIADMK's decision to field candidates in the Madurantakam and Dharapuram Assembly byelections has turned the contests into an early test of whether the party can arrest its steep decline in Scheduled Caste-reserved constituencies. With its tally in SC seats falling from 32 in 2016 to just eight in 2026, the opposition party faces pointed criticism from former insiders even as it argues that its legacy and welfare record still resonate with Dalit voters.
