TN Elections 2019: Paatali Makkal Katchi lost in all seven constituencies it contested under the ADMK alliance. The results are a shocker for not only PMK but also for the whole ADMK alliance with only one seat won by ADMK in Theni. The so-called Mega alliance was considered a power-packed alliance with many big names such as BJP, DMDK and PMK joining hands.
PMK contested in 7 constituencies including Dharmapuri, Villupuram, Arakonam, Sriperumbudur, Cuddalore, Central Madras and Dindugal. The President of the youth wing of PMK Dr Anbumani Ramadass who previously won in Dharmapuri and was expected to win this election has failed to deliver.
Conflict of interest, Anbumani was a harsh critique of the ADMK party and even labelled the ADMK ministers as Tyre lickers for their act of bowing to Jayalalitha. He also condemned Modi's Hindutva policy in the north and accused him of trying to corrupt Tamilnadu. Dr Ramadass, father of Anbumani even answered a question from the reporters before this election saying, "we will ally with the Dravidian parties when the waves in the ocean stop coming.
