TVK constitutes Election Campaign Committee ahead of Tamil Nadu Assembly polls: Vijay

Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam President Vijay announces a state-wide Election Campaign Committee to oversee activities for the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections.

"The newly formed committee will be responsible for managing and supervising election campaign activities at the state, district and constituency levels. - Vijay"

Chennai, January 17

With preparations gaining momentum for the forthcoming Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly General Elections, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam President Vijay announced the constitution of an Election Campaign Committee to coordinate and oversee poll-related activities across the state.

In an official letter issued to party functionaries and cadres on Friday, Vijay said that the newly formed committee will be responsible for managing and supervising election campaign activities at the state, district and constituency levels. He stated that the panel will cover all 234 Assembly constituencies in Tamil Nadu and play a key role in strengthening the party's organisational presence ahead of the elections.

According to the letter, the Election Campaign Committee will conduct consultative meetings, campaign meetings and other organisational programmes required for the effective execution of election-related work. Vijay said the committee will ensure coordinated efforts across constituencies and facilitate smooth implementation of campaign strategies in the run-up to the Assembly polls.

The TVK president also appealed to party members and office-bearers to extend their full cooperation to the newly constituted committee.

Vijay's announcement comes at a time when political parties in Tamil Nadu have begun intensifying organisational exercises and groundwork in anticipation of the 2026 Assembly elections.

The AIADMK-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is aiming to reclaim power in the state after losing the 2021 Assembly elections. Despite a subdued performance in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, the AIADMK has renewed its alliance with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) after severing ties in 2023.

Meanwhile, the ruling Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) is seeking to retain power and enters the electoral contest with confidence following its strong performance in the 2024 parliamentary polls.

As the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections approach, senior leaders of the Congress from the state are scheduled to meet the party's top leadership at Indira Bhawan in New Delhi later today at 4 pm. The meeting is expected to focus on election strategy, organisational preparedness and possible seat-sharing arrangements.

Tamil Nadu is scheduled to hold elections in the first half of this year.

All parties are in full election mode now. Vijay's star power will definitely attract youth, but the real test is on-ground organization across 234 constituencies. DMK seems confident after the Lok Sabha results, but Tamil Nadu voters are known for surprises.

Honestly, I'm tired of the same old DMK vs AIADMK fight. A strong third front led by a clean image like Vijay is exactly what Tamil Nadu politics needs. Hope this committee focuses on real issues like water, jobs, and infrastructure, not just filmi style campaigns.

Following TN politics from abroad. The AIADMK-BJP reunion is a key factor. Will Vijay's entry split any particular vote bank? The Congress meeting in Delhi today shows how crucial this state is for national alliances too.

Coordination at district and constituency level is so important. Many parties fail here. If TVK can build a dedicated cadre beyond Vijay's fan clubs, they can be a serious contender. But they need a clear manifesto, not just anti-establishment rhetoric.

The article mentions elections in the first half of *this* year, but the context is 2026. Seems like a minor error. Anyway, the political temperature is rising. Hope the campaign focuses on development debates rather than personal attacks.
