The ruling DMK has strategically fielded candidates in Chennai's core seats, largely avoiding alliances and setting up direct contests with AIADMK in 12 out of 15 seats. The party has introduced fresh faces, including a first-time woman councillor, while retaining key leaders like Chief Minister M K Stalin and Deputy Chief Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin.
