TNCC Leader Accuses Opposition of Attempting to Undermine TVK Government
TNCC president Manickam Tagore said on Thursday that opposition parties were trying to destabilise the TVK‑led government by approaching its MLAs. He supported Minister C.T.R. Nirmal Kumar’s claim that the DMK and AIADMK were attempting to poach TVK MLAs with the BJP’s backing, stating that those who had lost power were seeking to disturb the government. Speaking to media, Tagore said senior leaders of the DMK, AIADMK and BJP had repeatedly questioned the stability of the government. "An honest government has been installed, honest Ministers have been appointed, and the Chief Minister has been delivering a clean administration for the past four months," he added, noting that the opposition was attempting to create uncertainty and undermine the state’s development. Tagore also responded to Union Minister of State Jitendra Singh’s allegations about foreign funding for protests in Delhi, saying Singh should file a police complaint if he had evidence. "Such baseless claims must stop. As a Minister of State in the Prime Minister’s Office, he should act responsibly. Who is stopping him from going to a police station if he has proof?" he asked. He further accused the BJP of spreading misinformation to divert attention from allegations of electoral malpractice. Published - November 06, 2026 12:47 am IST
