The Supreme Court on Monday (October 26, 2026) dismissed a petition seeking a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into allegations of “horse-trading” involving Tamil Nadu Minister and Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) general secretary N. Anand and four former AIADMK MLAs who shifted political allegiance to the ruling party after the State Assembly elections in May 2026.

A Bench headed by Chief Justice of India Surya Kant rejected the petition filed by Tamil Nadu resident M. Srinivasan, who alleged Mr. Anand and the four former AIADMK MLAs — K. Maragatham Kumaravel, S. Jayakumar, P. Sathyabama, and E. Subaya — had indulged in “horse-trading” to secure a majority in the Tamil Nadu Assembly.
