Vijay Holds Key Strategy Meet as TVK Gears Up for Tamil Nadu Polls

The meeting was held at the party's office in Teynampet in Chennai, where key administrative members and party officials were present.

Vijay, who launched Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam, has been actively engaging with party members and holding internal consultations to strengthen the organisation and prepare for the political challenges ahead.

The consultation meeting forms part of the party's ongoing efforts to consolidate its organisational network and mobilise its cadre as it gears up for upcoming political activities in the state.

Earlier in the day, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) Executive Committee Chief Coordinator KA Sengottaiyan said public support is steadily growing for Vijay to become the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, asserting that the actor-turned-politician's decision to step away from cinema to serve the people has resonated with voters.

Speaking to reporters after arriving at the Chennai airport from Coimbatore, Sengottaiyan said that the Model Code of Conduct and all election-related rules apply equally to every political party and that TVK is strictly following them.

"The election code of conduct applies to all political parties equally. Not only election-related regulations but all government rules are being followed properly by our movement. All activities under the leadership of Vijay are being carried out strictly within these regulations," he said.

Referring to Vijay's recent public meeting, Sengottaiyan remarked that it appeared as if numerous restrictions had been imposed specifically on the TVK leader. "From the way things unfolded, it seemed as if as many as 51 restrictions were imposed only on Vijay. People are now questioning whether other parties in the electoral field are also following the same election rules," he added.

Sengottaiyan further highlighted Vijay's transition from cinema to politics, saying the move has generated considerable goodwill among the public. According to him, the actor left behind a highly successful film career to dedicate himself to public service.

The Election Commission of India on Sunday announced the schedule for Assembly elections in five states and one Union Territory, including Tamil Nadu, where polling will be held in a single phase on April 23, and counting will take place on May 4.

Following the announcement, the Model Code of Conduct came into immediate effect across the state as political parties intensified their preparations for the polls.
