Suvendu Adhikari Sets Governance Tone After Bengal CM Pick Suvendu Adhikari, named the BJP’s West Bengal Chief Minister pick, has promised a delivery-focused government built on trust, safety and quick implementation.

In a historic moment for West Bengal politics, BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari has been announced as the state's next Chief Minister, marking the first time a BJP leader will head the government in the state.

This breakthrough comes after BJP’s remarkable victory in the state assembly elections, where it won 207 out of the 293

Actor-turned-politician Vijay's Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) has now crossed the crucial majority mark of 118 in the fractured Tamil Nadu Assembly after securing the support of Congress, VCK, CPI, and CPI(M). This alliance has strengthened Vijay’s claim to form the next government, with all eyes now on whether Governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar will invite him to take the next step. TVK had emerged as the single largest party in the recently-concluded Tamil Nadu elections, securing 107 seats out of 234 in the Assembly. Following the election, the opposition parties—Congress, VCK, CPI, and CPI(M)—extended their support, pushing Vijay's alliance to the magic number of 118, needed to form the government. With this new backing, Vijay is expected to stake his claim once again after an earlier rejection by the Governor. TVK had previously sought an appointment with Governor Arlekar, but it was rescheduled to 6 pm. This delay has caused political turmoil, with several protests from TVK cadres and Congress announcing statewide demonstrations against the Governor’s stance. The political drama surrounding Vijay's efforts to form a government has been further complicated by criticisms of the Governor’s refusal to invite the largest party to form a government. Opposition leaders have argued that the Governor’s actions go against constitutional norms, citing precedents where leaders were invited to form governments without initially proving their majority in the legislature. With political tensions high, the sudden consolidation of support around Vijay is seen as a significant turning point. The Congress, Left, and VCK have all rallied behind Vijay’s leadership, but the Governor’s next move remains crucial in determining if Vijay will be invited to form the next Tamil Nadu government. Behind the scenes, there have been reports of frantic negotiations, with Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge personally speaking to VCK leader Thol Thirumavalavan to secure their support. Despite some criticisms from VCK leader Sinthanai Selvan about Vijay’s handling of post-poll situations and accusations of resort politics, the larger concern has been preventing what opposition parties see as an attempt to impose "Governor’s Rule" in Tamil Nadu. BJP’s spokesperson, however, maintains that the Governor is acting within constitutional boundaries. As the battle for power in Tamil Nadu intensifies, the political standoff shows no signs of ending soon. With TVK now in a stronger position, it remains to be seen whether the Governor will accept the support from Vijay’s alliance and move forward with the formation of the government.

Tamil Nadu is currently embroiled in a full-fledged constitutional crisis after the Governor declined to invite actor-politician Vijay’s Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) to form a government.

With rival factions scrambling to explore alternatives, the TVK has threatened to take drastic action. If

The legislative assembly of West Bengal was dissolved on Thursday, May 7, 2026, after completing its term, officials said, marking the end of a politically charged period in the state. The dissolution order was issued under Article 174 of the Constitution and made public by Raj Bhavan. Authorities confirmed the move coincided with the scheduled expiry of the assembly’s tenure. The development follows recent remarks by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who earlier this week rejected claims of electoral defeat and alleged irregularities in the mandate. Her comments drew criticism from leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party, who questioned her position and called for accountability. Officials, however, did not link the dissolution directly to the political dispute, stating it was a routine constitutional step at the end of the assembly’s term. The dissolution formally concludes the current legislative cycle in the state, with further steps expected as part of the electoral transition process.

In a notable move, Vijay, the leader of the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), rejected the police convoy vehicles assigned to him after his party secured 108 seats in the Tamil Nadu Assembly elections.
