"DMK Condemns Congress as 'Backstabbers' for Backing Vijay's TVK in Tamil Nadu, Stirring Political Controversy"

DMK Slams Congress as "Backstabbers" Over Support to TVK in Tamil Nadu

The political landscape in Tamil Nadu has been shaken by the recent decision of the Congress party to extend support to Vijay's TVK, prompting strong criticism from their ally, the DMK. The move has sparked a major rift within the INDIA bloc, with DMK leader MK Stalin leading the charge in labeling the Congress as "backstabbers."

DMK spokesperson Saravanan Aadurai expressed disappointment over the Congress's decision, stating that his party did not endorse the move to support TVK in forming the government in Tamil Nadu. The Congress made this unexpected decision during a late-night Parliamentary Affairs Committee meeting, catching many by surprise.

Congress MP KC Venugopal defended the decision, stating that the mandate in Tamil Nadu was for a secular government committed to upholding the Constitution. He emphasized the party's determination to prevent the BJP and its allies from taking control in the state.

TVK President Thiru Vijay has sought the support of the Indian National Congress to form a government in Tamil Nadu, drawing inspiration from prominent leader Perumthalaivar Kamaraj for his political mission.

DMK's Aadurai further criticized the Congress, calling out their lack of seats and accusing them of making a "complete fool of themselves." He questioned TVK's choice of alliance partners, especially with other parties like ADMK offering their support.

Meanwhile, cracks within the AIADMK have also come to light following the Tamil Nadu Assembly Election results. The party is grappling with internal divisions over whether to support Vijay in forming a coalition government, amidst pressure from the BJP to block the Congress from gaining power in the state.

Sources indicate that the BJP's leadership is actively involved in steering AIADMK towards supporting Vijay, rather than allowing the Congress and Left parties to play a significant role in the government. With TVK falling short of a majority, coalition support has become crucial in forming the next administration.

Reports suggest that Vijay is set to take oath on May 6, signaling a new chapter in Tamil Nadu's political landscape. Stay tuned for further updates on this evolving situation.
