Actor-turned-politician Vijay is set to take over as the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu following the support of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) and its allies. DMK spokesperson A Sarvanan highlighted that MK Stalin, the party chief, played a pivotal role in persuading allies to unite with the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), thereby averting a potential constitutional crisis. Sarvanan criticized the Congress party for switching allegiance from the INDI alliance to the TVK, claiming that their electoral success in winning five seats in the recent state assembly elections was largely due to the groundwork laid by DMK cadres. This political maneuvering reflects the ongoing dynamics in Tamil Nadu's political landscape as parties align and realign to secure power.
