In the Tamil Nadu Assembly, former Chief Minister O. Panneerselvam and Revenue Minister K.A. Sengottaiyan exchanged remarks over their political shifts and the government's performance. Panneerselvam criticized the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) government for not fulfilling key electoral promises, while Sengottaiyan defended the administration, highlighting its clean governance and five-year mandate. The debate included light-hearted barbs about changing allegiances and leader photographs, reflecting ongoing political realignments and differing views on government achievements.
