Tamil film star C Joseph Vijay has been sworn in as Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu after his TVK Party won the state assembly elections. The result hands control of one of India's most industrialised states to a first-time politician with a vast popular following.
Vijay, founder of Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam, was sworn in as Tamil Nadu Chief Minister by Governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar at Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium, with nine others also taking oath. The TVK's rise marks a significant break from the state's established Dravidian party dominance.
Joseph Vijay Chandrasekhar was sworn in as Tamil Nadu Chief Minister on Sunday, becoming the first leader in nearly 60 years with no ties to the DMK or AIADMK. His win reshapes the state's political landscape and raises questions about governance, investor confidence, and federal relations.
Vijay, founder of Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam, was sworn in as Tamil Nadu Chief Minister on May 10, 2026, along with nine cabinet ministers. The full list of ministerial portfolios has not been detailed in available reports.
Advocate A. Lakshminarayanan has petitioned the Supreme Court arguing Tamil Nadu's Governor is duty-bound to invite TVK to form a government. The plea contends that ignoring this obligation would violate the electoral mandate and damage democratic norms.
Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam, led by actor Joseph C. Vijay, has emerged as the single largest party in the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections. The result signals a major shift in a state long dominated by the DMK and AIADMK, though coalition prospects remain unclear.
