A DMK MLA gave a sensational interview asserting that "there won't be a government in 6 months — why even wait 6 months?" — reflecting the party's increasingly aggressive opposition posture.
The legislator argued that the TVK government's fragile arithmetic — just three seats above the majority mark after coalition support — and the ongoing AIADMK defection drama make the government inherently unstable.
The remark echoes earlier DMK predictions that the TVK government would not survive long, and signals that the DMK is positioning itself for what it hopes will be fresh elections in the near term.
TVK has 159 seats with coalition support in a 234-seat house where 118 are needed for a majority — giving it a working margin, but one that could be eroded if the courts disqualify rebel MLAs or if coalition partners withdraw.
