Tamil Nadu Politics: A big change is being seen in the politics of Tamil Nadu regarding actor-turned-politician Vijay’s party TVK. Amidst preparations to form the new government, Congress has announced its support to TVK, breaking its long-standing alliance with DMK.
At the same time, Congress says that this alliance with TVK will not be limited only to government formation, but cooperation will also continue in the upcoming local body elections, Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha elections. At the same time, despite supporting TVK in Tamil Nadu, Congress and DMK may continue to cooperate under the ‘India Block’ at the Centre.
Congress’ condition on alliance with TVK
Tamil Nadu Congress in-charge Girish Chodankar said that his only condition with TVK is that no BJP ally will be included in this alliance, he also clarified that Congress will remain in the ‘India’ alliance with DMK.
Earlier, Congress had officially announced its support to TVK for government formation. This decision was taken after the meeting of the top leadership of Congress and Tamil Nadu Congress Committee. AICC Tamil Nadu in-charge Girish Chodankar said in the press release that TVK President Vijay had requested formal support from the Congress.
Congress’s stance on public mandate
Let us tell you that it was said in the press release that the people of Tamil Nadu, especially the youth, have given a clear and strong mandate, which is in favor of a secular, progressive and public welfare government. Respecting this mandate, Congress has decided to give full support to TVK.
However, the party has also made it clear that this support will be with certain conditions and no communal force will be included in the alliance which does not believe in the values of the Constitution.
Cooperation will continue in future elections also
Congress also said that this cooperation with TVK will not be limited to government formation only, but will continue in the future in local body elections as well as Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha elections. Both parties included Perunthalaivar Kamaraj, Periyar and Dr. B.R. Following the ideals of Ambedkar, the resolve to advance social justice and constitutional values has been reiterated.
