TVK president meets Governor Rajendra Arlekar at Lok Bhavan and staked claim to form the next government @xpresstn @NewIndianXpress

Hours after the Congress extended support to the TVK to form the government, TVK president C Joseph Vijay meets Governor Rajendra Arlekar at the Lok Bhavan in Chennai; this is his first meeting with the Governor after getting elected as the TVK's legislative party; he is likely to stake claim to form the next government @xpresstn @NewIndianXpress

Congress extends support to TVK in forming government with a condition that the TVK should not align with communal forces; with this, the long time alliance between the DMK and Congress has come to an end @xpresstn @NewIndianXpress

#TVKVijay @TVKVijayHQ government should take a step forward to police reform in Tamil Nadu. Unlike DMK government, it should support trial against Balveer Singh IPS who removed teeth of around 10 suspects & crushed testicles of few. Form a special team to inquire phone-tapping & data theft (from cellphones of arrested suspects) by police officers. Who knows the team may even end up finding phone-tapping of your functionaries. Withdraw cases registered by DMK government against activists, youtubers & journalists, including Savukku Shankar and his team. Keep Alangulam suspended SI Esakkiraja-like cops away from law and order. Appoint honest officers to top posts Please ensure the police officials get no calls from ruling party functionaries, which will help police to legally act against real culprits. Give special attention to trial against cops who were accused of brutal human rights violations. Ensure that working-CCTV cameras are properly installed at all police stations as per SC order. Ensure that talent and eligible people are appointed PPs and GPs in subordinate courts that will ensure public get justice. Ensure the ban on police officers & officals uploading self-praising shorts/reels on social media for likes is implemented properly. Please make Tamil Nadu people really feel that the police are their friends. Ensure hike in police salary as promised and generate more jobs in the dept to implement eight-hour duty model in future.

The Western region, traditionally considered the #AIADMK’s stronghold, has been breached by the #TVK and they’ve done so in a significant manner. While the #AIADMK managed to win only 19 constituencies, #TVK surged ahead in 27 seats. Among #AIADMK’s allies, the #PMK and the #BJP secured one seat each. On the other hand, the #DMK won seven constituencies while its allies — the #KMDK and the #CPI — won two. #TVK’s domination in the region, with 57 constituencies, overshadows that of the Dravidian majors, as the #AIADMK had won 35 constituencies in the region in 2021, while its allies #PMK and #BJP secured four and two seats respectively. Moreover, #TVK candidates secured the second position in several constituencies, pushing both #AIADMK and #DMK alliance candidates into third position, suggesting actor-politician C Joseph Vijay’s popularity among various sections of the party. @Senthil_TNIE Read more here: newindianexpress.com/states/tamil-n…
