O. Panneerselvam (OPS), sidelined in AIADMK due to rivalries with Edappadi K. Palaniswami (EPS), may join the BJP to remain relevant. This could help BJP expand in Tamil Nadu while providing OPS central leadership support. His move could weaken AIADMK, shift political alliances, and alter the state's electoral dynamics, potentially affecting both BJP's prospects and DMK's dominance ahead of the 2024 elections.
