Tamil Nadu Governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar has accepted Chief Minister M K Stalin's resignation after his party, the DMK, was defeated in the April 23 Lok Sabha elections. Vijay-led TVK emerged as the largest party, securing 108 seats while the DMK and AIADMK won 59 and 47 seats, respectively.

In a significant political development, Tamil Nadu Governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar accepted the resignation of Chief Minister M K Stalin and his council of ministers. This resignation follows the DMK's disappointing performance in the recent Lok Sabha elections held on April 23.

Despite the setback, the governor requested Stalin to continue in his duties until alternative arrangements are made. The results saw the Vijay-led TVK become the largest party, securing a total of 108 seats in the Tamil Nadu assembly elections.

The poll results left DMK and AIADMK trailing with 59 and 47 seats, respectively. The implications of this political shift in Tamil Nadu could potentially pave the way for new alliances and governance strategies in the state.
