Chennai:
As Vijay fought a seesaw battle to cobble together an alliance to fulfil Governor RV Arlekar’s condition of written support of at least 118 MLAs, Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi maintained steady silence, keeping the TVK guessing. On Saturday, the party, however, brought the curtain down on the Tamil Nadu potboiler by announcing ‘unconditional’ support for the actor-politician. Elaborating on his decision, VCK President Thol Thirumavalavan said he didn’t want the President’s Rule imposed in Tamil Nadu.
“This decision has been taken because the VCK should not become an obstacle to TVK leader Vijay forming the government, and also because President’s Rule should not be imposed. We are extending our support only for the formation of the government,” he told news agency ANI.
