Tamil Nadu votes on October 6 in by-elections for Madurantakam and Dharapuram, the first electoral test of actor Vijay's TVK government since it ended decades of DMK-AIADMK rule in April. TVK fields two former AIADMK legislators who defected, while the DMK-led alliance has fractured and the Left contests separately.
