Ruling TVK is obsessed with purchasing MLAs: M.K. Stalin tells voters

DMK leader M.K. Stalin urged voters in Madurantakam and Dharapuram Assembly constituencies to vote against the ruling Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) in recent by-elections. In a social media post, Stalin accused TVK of prioritizing MLA purchases to maintain its government, rather than addressing pressing issues. He criticized TVK Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay for ignoring the concerns of fishermen and farmers, instead prioritizing a new Secretariat and a car race in London.

Stalin alleged that MLAs had sold their self-respect to join the ruling party, and rejected the claim that the DMK and AIADMK were planning to form a coalition government. He urged voters to reject TVK's misleading claims and ensure a fair election outcome.
