As the by-elections are about to take place, actor Vijay has made his stand clear. Vijay has decided not to contest his party Tamilaka Vetri Kazhakam in the July 10 Vikravandi by-election. TVK issued a statement regarding this today. At the same time, this by-election will cause big movements in Tamil politics. The main opposition AIADMK had announced the other day that it would not contest the by-elections. Following this, Vijay’s party also takes a similar stand. It is estimated that this will be an advantage for the BJP alliance.
The leaders said that the party will contest in the assembly elections to be held in Vijay 2026. The statement issued today explains that there will be no contesting in any elections till the 2026 assembly elections. Apart from the by-elections to be held on July 10, the local elections are coming up next year. Vijay’s party will not contest local elections. Local elections are elections that define the popular base for a political party. It is not clear whether TVK will change its stance of not contesting the 2025 local elections.
Meanwhile, Vijay’s party is now focusing on public welfare activities, membership campaign, public meetings and educational motivation programmes. With the AIADMK weak, Vijay’s political arrival is being watched with great interest by Tamils.
