Actor Vijay’s Tamizhaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) is holding its first state level public meeting at Vikravandi, near Vizhuppuram, Tamil Nadu. A massive ramp that leads to the stage has been put up from where Vijay will greet the audience.
Speculation is rife about his speech, with reports suggesting that Vijay plans to make a direct attack targeting both the DMK and the BJP, marking a significant departure from the actor’s previously reserved approach to political commentary.
Vijay’s criticisms of the DMK will likely center on the issues of drug and alcohol addiction. With the public meeting venue located just 95 kms away from Kallakurichi where 68 people succumbed to illicit liquor, Vijay is expected to address the rise in addiction rates and possibly challenge the DMK’s management of TASMAC-run liquor outlets, which have faced criticism for their role in the state’s alcohol dependency issues.
In addition to his critique of DMK, Vijay is expected to tackle the New Education Policy (NEP) introduced by the BJP government. The NEP has sparked significant opposition in Tamil Nadu due to its perceived imposition of Hindi and changes to the traditional curriculum. By voicing his disapproval of the NEP, Vijay will only be parroting the rhetoric of DMK and other Dravidianist parties to whip up anti-Centre sentiment.
Adding to the anticipation, News Tamil 24×7 has reported that Vijay may propose three resolutions aimed at critiquing BJP policies. While details of these resolutions remain undisclosed, they are expected to emphasize TVK’s position on issues affecting Tamil Nadu’s autonomy and interests, again mimicking the DMK.
