Thol Thirumavalavan, the president of the Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) party, stated that a decision regarding the party's future alliance—whether to continue with the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) or align with the Congress-led INDIA bloc—will be made in the next two weeks. This decision will be taken during a high-level committee meeting of the party. Thirumavalavan emphasized that the VCK has resolved to provide external support to the Tamil Nadu government led by the DMK, although discussions regarding a cabinet position have not yet occurred. He noted that the Congress party's recent support for the Tamil Nadu government has altered the political landscape within the INDIA bloc in the state, suggesting that the DMK's position within the alliance may be in jeopardy. Additionally, he pointed out a letter from DMK MP Kanimozhi to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, which requested separate seating arrangements for DMK MPs, indicating a growing rift between DMK and Congress in Parliament. Despite these developments, Thirumavalavan assured that the DMK's political standing remains stable, as it holds 60 MLAs in the Tamil Nadu Assembly.
