VCK Leader Thirumavalavan Urges Supporters to Accept Joining TVK-Led CabinetPreviousNext

Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) founder Thol. Thirumavalavan urged party supporters to accept the decision to join the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK)-led state government Cabinet, following criticism from DMK leaders. He explained that VCK's goal was to defeat the NDA within the DMK alliance, noting TVK emerged as the single largest party but lacked a majority. After Left parties supported TVK, VCK also extended unconditional support and joined the Cabinet upon party seniors' advice, despite allegations of personal ambition against him.
