Abstract

The article focuses on the Congress party's efforts to form an alliance with actor Vijay's Tamil Vetri Katchi (TVK) amid the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam's (DMK) firm stance. TVK proposed an alliance with Congress contesting 78 assembly seats, offering the deputy chief minister position and 10 ministerial posts, while Vijay pledged support for Congress campaigns in Kerala and Puducherry. Congress general secretary KC Venugopal consulted party MPs and MLAs before seeking two days to respond to the offer. The internal feedback showed limited support for continuing the alliance with DMK, though many members deferred to the party leadership's decision. [Extracted from the article]
