The Congress party in Tamil Nadu is contemplating an alliance with actor Vijay's Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) after the latter's impressive electoral debut, where it secured 105 seats in the 234-seat assembly. This performance has disrupted the long-standing dominance of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) and the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK), which have alternated power since 1967. Congress leader KC Venugopal remarked that the results were surprising and stressed the urgency of making decisions regarding Tamil Nadu's political strategy. If Congress and TVK join forces, they would reach a total of 118 seats, potentially forming a majority. The TVK's rapid rise is notable as it is unprecedented for a party to achieve such success within just two years of its formation, contrasting with the historical context of the AIADMK's founding in 1972. The political dynamics in Tamil Nadu are evolving, with new parties like TVK challenging the established order.
