Tamil Nadu News LIVE: OPS Joins DMK Today, Major Blow to AIADMK | India Today LIVE
Tamil Nadu News LIVE: Former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister O Panneerselvam (OPS) is all set to formally join the ruling DMK today, February 27, 2026, in one of the biggest political shocks ahead of the 2026 Assembly elections. After prolonged power struggle, expulsion from AIADMK, and failed attempts to build an independent base as the true heir to Amma’s legacy, OPS is making the switch to MK Stalin’s camp. Sources confirm the induction will happen at DMK headquarters. This move is seen as a masterstroke for DMK to consolidate its grip over southern Tamil Nadu, especially the crucial Thevar-dominated belt where OPS still commands strong loyalty. For AIADMK, already weakened by the EPS-OPS rift since Jayalalithaa’s death in 2016, this could split the traditional Thevar vote bank further and pull away disgruntled cadres. Watch the ceremony live, reactions from EPS camp, ground reports from southern districts, and expert analysis on how this reshapes TN politics. Will OPS bring a game-changing momentum to DMK?
