Tamil Nadu politics has intensified with former CM MK Stalin launching a sharp attack on Chief Minister Vijay and the TVK government, claiming it came to power without grassroots groundwork and warning the government could fall anytime. Stalin has also urged DMK cadre to stay election-ready, signalling a 2029 battle comeback. The remarks have triggered a political counter, with Congress MP Manickam Tagore hitting back at the DMK, fuelling a multi-cornered face-off and raising questions over shifting alliances in the state.
