Vijay meets TN Guv, stakes claim to form Govt, Cong to support TVK

In Tamil Nadu, TVK chief Vijay on Wednesday met Governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar and formally presented his claim and sought an invitation to form the government in the southern state.

Congress has  extended support for actor-politician Vijay’s TVK and sought an "appropriate share" in a future Tamil Nadu government arrangement. An alliance with the Congress adds five more MLAs in Vijay's support. Adding to his party's tally of 107 seats, this would take the TVK to 112. He would still need the support of six MLAs to cross the 118-majority mark and form the government in Tamil Nadu.

Congress cadres in Chennai celebrate after the party joined an alliance with Vijay-led TVK ahead of Tamil Nadu elections.Vijay has also reached out to the VCK, CPI, and the CPM. If they decide to back him, the TVK would have the support of 119 MLAs, one past the halfway mark.
