Rahul Gandhi arrives in Chennai; Vijay to take oath as CM today
Tamil Nadu: According to reports from Chennai, the process of forming a new government in Tamil Nadu has accelerated. Senior Congress leader and Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, has arrived in Chennai to attend the swearing-in ceremony for the Chief Minister. Political activity in the state is rife with activity surrounding Vijay, who will be sworn in as Chief Minister today.
According to reports, the TDP won 108 seats in the Tamil Nadu Assembly elections. However, the support of 118 MLAs is required to form a government. Despite falling short of the majority mark, the TDP leadership has claimed to form a government with the support of other parties.
According to sources, TDP leader Vijay has received the support of parties like the Congress, Left parties, the VKC, and the IUML. With this support, he will be sworn in as Chief Minister today. The swearing-in ceremony is being held in Chennai, and senior leaders from several political parties are expected to attend.
Rahul Gandhi’s arrival in Chennai is considered significant in this political development. His participation in the ceremony also sends a message of unity and support for the alliance. Congress had already indicated its support for this new coalition government.
Meanwhile, the support of the Left parties, as well as the VKC and IUML, has helped the alliance reach a majority mark. Based on this, the government formation process is being moved forward.
There is also discussion in political circles that despite winning 108 seats in the elections, the TDP is still dependent on the support of other parties to form a government. Meanwhile, the supporting parties say that this alliance was formed with public issues and the objective of a stable government in mind.
Tight security arrangements have been made for the swearing-in ceremony in Chennai. The administration has made special arrangements in view of the expected large number of supporters.
This entire development marks a new turning point in Tamil Nadu politics, where a new government is being formed through coalition politics.
