In a recent political development, Congress MP Christopher Tilak has justified his party's alliance with Vijay-led TVK, claiming it aligns with secular principles. Tilak, who recently became an MP with DMK support, emphasized the importance of this partnership during a conversation with reporters.
He stated that the Congress's decision was firm, despite limited representation with only five MLAs. This decision has placed BJP in a challenging position within Tamil Nadu, hindering its potential influence in the region, Tilak mentioned.
Tilak underscored the significance of minority and Dalit support against BJP, advocating for the protection of Tamil Nadu's traditions and religious harmony. He expressed confidence in Vijay's capability to tackle corruption with strong political resolve, despite the lack of clear majority intensifying political dilemmas.
