Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam Joins INDIA Bloc Protest Against Electoral Roll Revision in Chennai
Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), led by Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay, participated modestly in an Opposition protest in Chennai against the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls and the Chief Election Commissioner. While TVK's School Education Minister A Rajmohan spoke in support of voting rights without directly criticizing the BJP, the party's limited involvement reflects political caution amid a minority government and allegations of attempts to attract AIADMK legislators. The protest was part of a broader INDIA bloc campaign involving multiple parties.
