Vijay In Delhi | Vijay To Meet PM Modi, AIADMK MLA Exodus to TVK, & TN’s Ancient Kakhatai Revival

In today’s Tamil Nadu Brief, NDTV’s Sam Daniel tracks Chief Minister Vijay’s first Delhi visit after coming to power, with meetings likely with Narendra Modi, Amit Shah, Nirmala Sitharaman and Congress leaders including Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi. The focus: withheld education funds, metro rail projects and opposition to Karnataka’s proposed Mekedatu dam across the Cauvery. The programme also examines the growing AIADMK rebellion as another MLA joins TVK amid opposition allegations of engineered defections. And finally, a heartwarming story from Kanniyakumari where the ancient Sangam-era palmyra palm-leaf water carrier Kakhatai is being revived by traditional artisans.
