Thol Thirumavalavan asserts stability of Tamil Nadu TVK government

Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) president Thol Thirumavalavan stated that the Tamil Nadu government, led by Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay, faces no immediate threat of collapse. Speaking in Madurai, Thirumavalavan confirmed that alliance partners, including the Congress, Left parties, VCK, and the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML), remain committed to supporting the administration.

These remarks follow allegations from Law Minister CTR Nirmal Kumar regarding attempts to destabilize the government by offering up to Rs 70 crore to individual ruling party legislators. Thirumavalavan expressed confidence that TVK legislators would not succumb to such inducements.

Thirumavalavan also addressed several public grievances, including frequent power disruptions and concerns over electricity procurement. He urged the Chief Minister to intervene directly to address these issues. Additionally, he called for the government to ensure quality food for sanitation workers and suggested the union government suspend toll charges during the Deepavali festival to facilitate travel.
