Ambasamudram former MLA Esakki Subaya says he has written to Speaker withdrawing resignation

Esakki Subaya, a former MLA from Ambasamudram, has written to the Speaker of the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly to withdraw his resignation letter, according to a statement made on September 1, 2026, in the Madras High Court. The former MLA had resigned as the Ambasamudram MLA on May 26, 2026. However, the court has refused to consider his additional affidavit submitted along with the representation to the Speaker.

The court stated that they would not take anything on record as the matter is already part heard. The additional affidavit reiterated that Mr. Subaya's resignation was voluntary and genuine and that the Speaker had validly accepted it within his constitutional powers. However, he also highlighted that residents of Ambasamudram Assembly constituency have been without a representative due to multiple litigations and delay in conducting byelections.
