During his Delhi visit, Vijay received guard of honour at Tamil Nadu House.

This is the actor-turned-politician’s first official visit to the national capital after winning the trust vote on May 13 with the support of Congress, CPI, CPI(M), VCK and Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) MLAs.

According to an ANI report, Vijay is expected to meet Vice President CP Radhakrishnan, Union Minister Amit Shah, and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman during his New Delhi visit. He may also meet senior Congress leaders Mallikarjun Kharge, Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi.

Vijay had unveiled his 33-member Cabinet on May 24. The CM kept Home, Police, General Administration, Women Welfare and Municipal Administration departments. The finance department went to former AIADMK veteran K A Sengottaiyan, while health, medical education and family welfare went to Dr K G Arunraj. Arakkonam MLA V Gandhiraj, Sriperumbudur MLA K Thennarasu, Avinashi MLA S Kamali, Rasipuram MLA D Logesh Tamilselvan, and Ottapidaram MLA P Mathan Raja became Dalit representative members of Vijay-led TVK government.

The Opposition AIADMK faced an internal split, with a rebel faction of MLAs led by S P Velumani and C V Shanmugam reportedly expressing interest in aligning with Vijay’s TVK.

However, on May 27, SP Velumani reaffirmed his support for AIADMK party and General Secretary Edappadi K Palaniswami, signalling a continued backing amid speculation over internal divisions.
