The Tamil Nadu Vikas Katchi (TVK) party, led by Vijay, has successfully garnered support from the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) and Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK), bringing its strength to 120 MLAs, sufficient to claim government formation in Tamil Nadu. Governor RV Arlekar, who oversees both Tamil Nadu and Kerala, is currently in a delicate position as he prepares to travel to Kerala, where the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) has won the assembly elections. This dual responsibility adds complexity to the ongoing political negotiations in Tamil Nadu. Vijay has already met with Arlekar three times in recent days, but the urgency of the situation is heightened by Arlekar's impending departure. The outcome of Vijay's attempts to secure a meeting with the governor before his flight remains uncertain, with heightened security measures in place as the political landscape evolves. The developments in Tamil Nadu's government formation are closely watched, particularly as the support from CPI and CPM was confirmed, further solidifying Vijay's position.
