Parties within the ruling coalition celebrated the TVK’s triumphs in the Madurantakam and Dharapuram Assembly byelections, asserting that the outcomes were a validation of Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay and the government’s approach to coalition politics. VCK president Thol. Thirumavalavan remarked that the victories of TVK candidates Maragatham Kumaravel and P.
