Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India]: As the war of words between actor-politician Vijay’s Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) and Tamil Nadu’s ruling party DMK escalates, TVK spokesperson Veera Vigneshwaran has said his party will wipe out the DMK’s “monarchical rule” in the State in 2026.
He also lashed out at Chief Minister MK Stalin for addressing Vijay in “derogatory terms”.
“The Chief Minister addressed Thalapathy (actor and TVK chief Vijay) in derogatory terms. This is very unfortunate. This is not the way to respond to his political rivals. This shows the DNA of the DMK, which is to abuse its political rivals to secure its monarchical rule in Tamil Nadu,” Vigneshwaran told media.
“Thalapathy will wipe out this monarchical rule in 2026 and establish a democratic government in the coming election,” he added.
Vigneshwaran comments came in the backdrop of Stalin’s accusation that “new parties” wanted to “eliminate” the DMK.
In response to Vijay’s allegations against the DMK, Stalin stated on Monday that his party has performed well over the past four years and does not find it necessary to address such “trivial” matters.
TVK on Sunday held its executive and district secretaries meeting and passed resolutions condemning the BJP-led Union Government and the DMK-led State Government over various issues. 26 resolutions were passed in the meeting.
They include those condemning the Centre’s proposal for a ‘One Nation One Election’ and the DMK government’s “poor” handling of law and order and state finances.
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and DMK President M K Stalin in an insinuation on actor Vijay’s new party Tamilaga Vetri Kazhagam mentioned whoever starts a new party says DMK should be destroyed but they are worried about those things.
Responding to the accusations made by Vijay, Stalin said, “Whoever starts a new party is saying DMK should be destroyed. I just say to them just think about this government’s achievements in the last four years. In one word if need to be say ‘Vazhga Vasavalargal’ (let Criticisers live). I am not worrying about those things. Our journey is to do good things for the people. We don’t like to waste our time by responding unnecessarily to all. We don’t have enough time to work for the people”.
Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin also attended various public welfare events in his assembly constituency Kolathur this morning.
Chief Minister inaugurated a ‘Co-working Space’ and an ‘Education Centre’ for students with all the infrastructure facilities, including a shared workspace at a cost of Rs. 2.85 crores on Jagannathan Street in Kolathur. At the school ground on 4th Street in Periyar Nagar, CM distributed certificates to students who studied at Anitha Academy.
“Seeing the students studying in Anitha Academy, automatically I would get energy. I come here often to get that energy. In 2017 when sister Anitha died by suicide we all went through big grief and pain. You all know what is the reason for that. NEET exam destroyed her dreams and robbed her life. Till today legal fight continues against the NEET which affects the medical dream of oppressed people. Definitely, if it is not today or tomorrow, one day the Union Government will accept the Tamil Nadu people’s voice against NEET,” Stalin said.
