Vijay's Party TVK Gains Momentum with Five High-Profile Defectors from AIADMK and DMK

In Tamil Nadu, actor Vijay's party Tamilaga Vetri Kazhagam (TVK) got a big boost on Friday. Five big leaders of old and big parties joined TVK. Four of them are former AIADMK ministers and one is a former DMK MLA. TVK's hero is Vijay. So far Vijay was only in films, but he also entered politics and directly became the chief minister. In the assembly elections held in 2026, TVK performed brilliantly and formed the government in the state with the help of some other parties. On Friday, five big leaders came to TVK, which increased the party's clout. Four leaders from AIADMK have come to TVK. AIADMK is one of the oldest and biggest parties in Tamil Nadu. This party's government has been in Tamil Nadu before. Four former ministers from this party joined TVK. These four are MC Sampath, NR Sivapathy, Kadambur C Raju and Udumalai K Radhakrishnan. These four have been ministers in the AIADMK government for a very long time. Former DMK leader J Karunanidhi is the biggest anti-incumbency of this party.
