On Friday, A Raja, a leader of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) party, took to Twitter to mock the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) and the Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) for accepting ministerial positions in Chief Minister Vijay's Cabinet. He likened their actions to a metaphor about a coconut tree bending to offer water to a neighboring house, suggesting a betrayal of political alliances. Raja's comments followed the swearing-in of IUML's AM Shahjahan and VCK's Vanni Arasu as ministers in the Tamil Nadu government. Their induction marked the completion of Vijay's Cabinet, which now consists of 35 ministers, the maximum allowed under the Indian Constitution. This Cabinet formation comes after Vijay's party, the Tamil Nadu Vanniyar Katchi (TVK), emerged as the single-largest party in the Assembly elections, winning 108 seats but falling short of the majority needed to govern alone. The support from Congress, two Left parties, IUML, and VCK enabled Vijay to secure a majority and form the government.
