Tamil Nadu elections: Cases filed against Vijay, party workers over campaign violations

NEW DELHI: Actor-politician Vijay and members of his party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), have been booked for alleged violations of the model code of conduct (MCC) during a campaign event ahead of the April 23 Tamil Nadu Assembly polls, police sources told PTI on Tuesday. According to sources, the Peravallur police registered cases under multiple provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), including Section 126(2) related to obstruction of public proceedings, Section 189(2), and other relevant clauses. The action follows complaints of violations during Vijay’s campaign in the city. Police said party cadres had gathered at the venue before the time permitted by authorities, leading to inconvenience for the public. Officials also flagged the use of nearly 30 sound systems during a roadshow, alleging that it caused disturbance and disrupted traffic movement in the area. Vijay’s TVK is making its electoral debut in the 2026 Assembly elections. He launched his campaign from Perambur, one of the two constituencies he is contesting, along with Tiruchirappalli East.
