Chennai, 18th Nov. Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin expressed his understanding of Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) chief Thol Thirumavalavan’s sentiments, acknowledging his true affection and appreciation. Stalin’s remarks came in response to Thirumavalavan’s gratitude for the Chief Minister’s quick action on setting up a SIPCOT industrial park in Ariyalur district (Jayamkondam) within a year, as requested by the VCK leader.
In a letter to party cadres on Sunday, Stalin emphasized his commitment to fulfilling the requests made by Thirumavalavan, referring to the VCK leader’s visit to him on November 15. Though the reference was about the industrial park project, it carries political weight, especially as VCK has recently reiterated its demand for a share in power. This is further highlighted by growing political developments, such as actor Vijay’s new political outfit, Tamizhaga Vetri Kazhagam, also seeking a share in power, and AIADMK’s ongoing attempts to attract new allies ahead of the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections.
Speaking to reporters in Puducherry, Thirumavalavan reflected on the national coalition politics since 1977, suggesting that Tamil Nadu might eventually see similar arrangements. However, he stated that the timing wasn’t right yet for such demands, and emphasized that the 2026 election wouldn’t be the ideal time to push forward with the power-sharing request. The VCK leader confirmed that his party would remain a part of the DMK-led alliance for the time being.
