Posters mocking former AIADMK MLA Isakki Subbiah have appeared across Tirunelveli, questioning his attempt to reclaim his legislative seat after resigning. The posters criticize his bid to withdraw his resignation, which the Assembly Secretariat has declared impossible. Subbiah resigned along with other MLAs and joined the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam party. He later filed a petition to continue as MLA for Ambasamudram, citing public hardship, but the Madras High Court and Assembly Secretariat rejected his request, stating only a by-election can fill the vacancy. The posters, attributed to AIADMK supporters, ask "Is the MLA post a question?" and accuse Subbiah of disrespecting voters' verdict. They were pasted across the city and suburbs, creating political buzz amid ongoing disqualification proceedings against him and others.
