S. P. Velumani's faction within the AIADMK decided to stay away from the party's 55th foundation day celebrations and related public meetings. The move reflects growing differences with party general secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami after the party's poor showing in the 2026 Assembly election and recent by-election defeats.

Velumani held closed-door consultations with dissident AIADMK legislators and senior leaders, including C. Ve. Shanmugam, at his Chennai residence. The discussions focused on the faction's future in the party and the possibility of forming a separate group of MLAs in the Assembly, though the outcome remained unclear.
