BJP’s Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan faced defeat in the Mylapore Assembly constituency as TVK’s Venkataramanan emerged victorious in the key constituency.

In Tamil Nadu’s Mylapore constituency, BJP’s Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan has been defeated. TVK’s Venkataramanan emerged victorious in the key constituency, further reasserting TVK’s dominance in the 2026 State Assembly elections.
As counting progressed, it was observed that BJP bigwigs trailed behind Vijay’s TVK and the DMK in Tamil Nadu.
Meanwhile, the Mylapore constituency witnessed a tight three-way battle between BJP’s Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan, TVK’s Venkataramanan P, and DMK’s Velu Dha.
The emergence of the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) in the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections has triggered a political shake-up, disrupting the decades-long dominance of the state’s traditional Dravidian parties. Political experts and insiders suggest that TVK’s strong performance, with leads in over 100 constituencies, is likely to force a major organisational restructuring within both the DMK and the AIADMK-BJP alliance as they adjust to a new three-way political reality.
