Vijay Tvk

• Congress MP Karti Chidambaram announced conditional support to TVK for government formation, emphasizing respect for the public's mandate for change. • Support is offered provided the administration remains secular and excludes communal elements or BJP-aligned parties like AIADMK. • Chidambaram defended the shift from DMK ally, noting no pre-poll alliance had majority and aiming to block BJP influence via proxies.

• DMK leaders Kanimozhi NVN Somu and TKS Elangovan sharply criticized Congress for extending support to TVK, warning it will be 'wiped out everywhere'. • The reaction follows Congress breaking pre-poll ties with DMK, providing 5 MLAs to help TVK reach 112 seats short of majority. • DMK views the move as betrayal amid hung assembly, fueling accusations as rivals like AIADMK explore counter-alliances.

• Actor-turned-politician Vijay's newly formed AMMK Makkala Needhi Maiam (TVK) party has dramatically disrupted Tamil Nadu's traditional Dravidian political landscape, preventing any single party from securing an outright majority and leaving the state with a hung assembly requiring coalition negotiations. • The TVK's emergence represents a significant challenge to decades of DMK-AIADMK duopoly in one of India's most politically important southern states, forcing previously dominant parties to recalibrate their governance strategies. • Political analysts question whether Vijay, despite his mass appeal as a film star, can successfully navigate coalition politics and complex state governance with limited political experience.
