C Joseph Vijay, leader of the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), has officially taken office as the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu and signed his first set of orders focusing on welfare and law enforcement. Key initiatives include providing 200 units of free electricity to eligible households, establishing a special task force to tackle drug-related crimes, and creating another task force dedicated to enhancing women's safety. This marks a significant shift in Tamil Nadu politics, as the TVK emerged as the single largest party in the recent Assembly elections, forming a coalition with Congress and other parties. The elections resulted in a fractured mandate, challenging Vijay to navigate coalition dynamics while transitioning from a celebrity-driven campaign to effective governance. His popularity, built through films portraying him as a champion against corruption, has resonated with younger voters, setting the stage for his political journey.
