Six Factors Working Against DMK In Tamil Nadu Elections 2021

By standard political logic, 2021 should be a cakewalk for the DMK.
Yet, one of the biggest challenges for the party are the memories of its own previous administration.
The Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK), the party that has anchored the political presence of Dravidianism in Tamil Nadu, has now been out of power for two terms. Nevertheless, it has been subject to severe criticism and even mockery by many across social media circles and by opposition parties.
This haranguing of a party that has actually been out of power for ten years is a rather unique phenomenon. Political observers say that the party has had to bat against such criticism mainly because of its rather controversial legacy - of alleged scams and ideological positions.
