(L-R): Leena Rose Martin, Aadhav Arjuna and Jose Charles Martin | Winning from Lalgudi constituency for the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK), Leena Rose Martin will join her son-in-law Aadhav Arjuna, who won from Villivakam seat on a Tamilaga Vetri Kazhagam (TVK) ticket as MLAs in the next Tamil Nadu Assembly. Her son, Jose Charles Martin, who founded his own party in Puducherry — Latchiya Jananayaka Katchi — won from Kamarajar Nagar seat, and is part of the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA). The Martins are one of the rare cases in Tamil Nadu where members of the same family belong to different parties. While the State’s strongest political family — the Karunanidhi family are together in the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (except K. Alagiri who has been expelled form the party), the State has three other political families whose members are in different parties. Published - May 08, 2026 07:29 pm IST
