Political tensions are escalating in Tamil Nadu after the delay in inviting Vijay to form the government. The Indian National Congress has announced a protest outside the Governor's residence at 11 a.m., accusing the Governor and the BJP-led Centre of delaying Vijay's swearing-in despite Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam emerging as the single largest party. Constitutional experts and several political leaders have argued that Vijay should be invited to form the government first and prove his majority later on the Assembly floor.
