DMK Slams Congress for Backing Vijay's TVK, Calls Them Backstabbers
Chennai, May 6, 2026 - The political landscape in Tamil Nadu has seen a dramatic shift with Congress aligning with Vijay's Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), a move that has been met with sharp criticism from their pre-poll ally, DMK. The Congress party, after a late-night virtual meeting, decided to extend conditional support to TVK, demanding cabinet positions and chairmanships in certain boards. The formal announcement of this alliance is expected soon, signaling a shift in political alliances in Tamil Nadu. The Fallout Between Congress and DMK The DMK, led by outgoing Chief Minister MK Stalin, wasted no time in accusing Congress of betrayal. DMK spokesperson Saravanan Annadurai took to social media, calling Congress "backstabbers" for breaking away from their pre-poll alliance. Annadurai reminded Congress that their five Assembly seats were possible only because of Stalin's leadership and support during the elections. He also pointed out that it was Stalin who had stood by Congress during tough times, including when the BJP/RSS trolled Rahul Gandhi as "Pappu." This political fallout marks the end of the DMK-Congress alliance, with Congress now choosing to back Vijay's TVK, which emerged as the single largest party with 108 seats in Tamil Nadu's Assembly. Vijay’s TVK, which had initially ruled out an alliance with BJP, has found a new ally in Congress, signaling a new phase in Tamil Nadu politics. Despite falling short of a majority, TVK remains confident about forming a government with outside support, and they have already reached out to other parties from the DMK-led Secular Progressive Alliance. The Congress, under the coordination of Karti Chidambaram, has decided to join hands with TVK, which is likely to shape Tamil Nadu’s political future in the coming weeks.
