In a significant political shift, the Congress party has decided to support the TVK, led by actor-politician Vijay, to form a new government in Tamil Nadu, ending its long-standing alliance with the DMK. This decision comes amid allegations of betrayal from the DMK.
Congress's media chairperson Pawan Khera refuted claims that the party has 'backstabbed' the DMK, asserting that their departure from the alliance does not constitute a betrayal. Khera highlighted that the DMK had previously chosen to contest elections independently, exercising their democratic rights.
Despite the DMK's criticisms, Congress leaders emphasize their history of not seeking power, arguing that their choice to back TVK aligns with forming a government with like-minded parties only. This realignment manifests Congress’s strategy to adapt to the evolving political landscape in Tamil Nadu.
