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.
