DMK and Congress Engage in Seat-Sharing Talks Amid Alliance Tensions in Tamil Nadu

The DMK and Congress in Tamil Nadu are engaged in tense seat-sharing talks ahead of the upcoming Assembly elections, with Congress demanding around 39-41 seats and two Rajya Sabha berths, while DMK offers about 25-28 seats and one Rajya Sabha seat. The negotiations have been complicated by Congress exploring ties with actor Vijay's Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam and internal divisions within Congress leadership. DMK has set a March 6 deadline to resolve the deadlock, emphasizing alliance unity and managing multiple partners' demands.
