Actor-turned-politician Vijay has reportedly made it clear that his party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), is not inclined to seek support from the Bharatiya Janata Party to form the government in Tamil Nadu. This development follows a high-stakes meeting with the Governor, after which Vijay held urgent consultations with senior party leaders and legal advisors at his Nilankarai residence.

With the TVK emerging as the single-largest party but falling short of the majority mark, the path to power has become a legal and political battleground. Party seniors have advised Vijay to explore judicial remedies, suggesting that the party move either the High Court or the Supreme Court regarding the formation process. Local outlets, including Polimer TV, report that the party is already preparing to approach the High Court.

Adding national weight to the situation, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has reportedly instructed his legal team to intervene in the matter. The TVK’s legal strategy is expected to lean heavily on the landmark 1989 S.R. Bommai case, which governs the powers of a Governor in a hung assembly. While some party insiders have floated the idea of a re-election to seek a clearer mandate, the immediate focus remains on a legal challenge to secure an invitation to form the government.
