Vijay, the president of the Tamil Maanila Congress party, is set to file a supplementary affidavit in Perambur on Saturday to rectify discrepancies in his nomination papers for the 2026 elections. His initial nomination submitted on Monday incorrectly stated that he had no First Information Reports (FIRs) against him, while a later submission for Trichy East revealed two pending FIRs. One FIR was filed by the Greater Chennai Police for public inconvenience during a rally, and the other by Madurai police concerning an alleged assault on a supporter during a party conference in 2025. Vijay claims he was unaware of the 2025 FIR until after submitting his initial nomination. Additionally, there was an inconsistency in his age; documents from Perambur listed him as 52, while the Trichy East affidavit stated he was 51. Former Chief Election Commissioner N Gopalswami noted that returning officers typically accept nominations unless there is clear suppression of facts, and he believes Vijay's recent disclosures may lead to a favorable court ruling if challenged.
