Congress MP Manickam Tagore on Saturday extended warm greetings to the Tamil Nadu CM-designate and Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam leader Vijay, saying that the State expects a change and new hope.

In a post on X, Tagore said that the people of Tamil Nadu are looking forward to social justice, development, equality, and humane governance.

"Our heartfelt congratulations to Vijay, who is about to assume the office of Chief Minister. Tamil Nadu is at a moment when it looks forward to change and new hope. The people expect an inclusive Tamil Nadu founded on social justice, equality, development, and humane governance. We believe that under your leadership, a people-centred, transparent, and well-governed administration will be established. Our heartfelt best wishes for your new journey for the people of Tamil Nadu to be successful," he said.

DMK leader TKS Elangovan said that before reaching out to the Governor, Vijay should have obtained the support from various political parties to secure a majority.

"He should have first tried with other political parties, sought their support and then given a letter. But he is approaching the governor without a majority," he said.

Tamil Nadu Governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar on Saturday appointed TVK Chief and CM-designate Vijay as the Chief Minister of the State.

Indian National Congress, Communist Party of India (CPI), Communist Party of India (Marxist), Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) and Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) have extended unconditional support to TVK to form a government in the state.

Vijay will take oath as Chief Minister at a function to be held at 10 am tomorrow. (ANI)
