Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], March 16 : Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) has categorically denied circulating reports suggesting alliance talks with various political parties at any level, saying that the rumours are "completely untrue".
The party said that media claims that alliance talks are being held between the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK), All India Puratchi Thalaivar Makkal Munetra Kazhagam founder VK Sasikala and PMK founder Dr S Ramadoss are completely untrue.
Joint General Secretary and Chief Spokesperson of TVK CTR Nirmal Kumar on Monday urged not to believe any rumours related to the alliance.
"Do Not Believe Rumours! Recently, certain false reports have been deliberately circulated in some media outlets and on social media for political gain. In particular, the claims that alliance talks are being held between the BJP/AIADMK, or VK Sasikala and Dr. S. Ramadoss with Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam are completely untrue," he said.
He emphasised that "no discussions whatsoever have taken place at any level with the above-mentioned parties or political leaders."
Kumar also highlighted that similar unfounded narratives had previously linked TVK with various parties, including the Indian National Congress.
He noted, "It is widely known that those claims were also baseless. Nevertheless, such unfounded reports are now being spread again by members of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam solely to create confusion among the public and our party workers."
Urging caution, he appealed to the media and social media users, saying, "We request responsible media organisations and social media users not to share such rumours without verifying the authenticity of the information. Truth will prevail!"
TVK's statement comes amid heightened speculation and political manoeuvring in Tamil Nadu ahead of the upcoming 2026 Assembly elections.
Tamil Nadu will go to the polls in a single phase on April 23, with counting of votes scheduled for May 4.
The main electoral contest is expected between the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK)-led Secular Progressive Alliance (SPA), which includes Congress, DMDK, and other parties, and the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), led by All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) with BJP and Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK) as allies.
Actor-turned-politician Vijay is set to make his political debut in this election with his party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK).
