In a decisive move, Congress MP Christopher Tilak announced the party's support for TVK to form a government due to its commitment to secular values. Tilak, who became an MP with DMK's backing in the Rajya Sabha elections, stressed the importance of opposing 'Hindutva forces.'
Tilak asserted that Congress's involvement complicates BJP's potential influence, stating that minorities and Dalits showed a strong anti-BJP sentiment. He underscored the need to safeguard Tamil Nadu's traditional and religious harmony.
Addressing corruption, Tilak mentioned that while it may not be wholly eradicated, there is potential for reduction under Vijay's leadership. Political dynamics remain complex amid the absence of a definitive majority.
