'He should lead': BJP state vice president Khushbu Sundar backs TVK chief Vijay for CM

NEW DELHI: The vice president of Bharatiya Janata Party’s Tamil Nadu state unit Khushbu Sundar expressed her support for TVK chief Vijay for the chief ministerial post as the latter has hit a roadblock in government formation in the state after falling short of majority by 5 MLAs.“As a citizen of Tamilnadu State, when people have chosen their CM, he should lead,” Khushbu Sundar said in a post on X.BJP has won one seat in Tamil Nadu, in alliance with AIADMK. Congress has alleged that the delay in inviting Vijay to form the government is a calculated move by the BJP-led Centre, describing it as an “undemocratic” attempt to undermine the people’s mandate.Governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar called Vijay twice in two days and asked him to submit letters of support from allied MLAs and other partners, effectively establishing a working majority before an invitation to form the government.Neither the DMK nor the AIADMK managed to secure a majority, resulting in a hung assembly. Smaller parties such as the Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi, Pattali Makkal Katchi, Communist Party of India, Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPM), Indian Union Muslim League (IUML), Desiya Murpokku Dravida Kazhagam and Amma Makkal Munnettra Kazagam are now being seen as potential kingmakers in the government formation process.
