CHENNAI: Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) on Sunday categorically denied reports of forging an alliance with AIADMK or other parties for the 2026 Assembly elections.

According to senior TVK functionaries, the party’s founder-president Vijay has informed party workers that the party will contest the upcoming Assembly elections solo, with the ultimate goal of unseating the ruling DMK.

“Vijay is reportedly keen on forming a formidable alliance, but only under TVK’s leadership and with like-minded parties willing to accept him as the alliance leader,” a senior TVK functionary said.

“We are not engaging in any talks now with AIADMK, NTK, or any other parties regarding a potential alliance. We are working tirelessly to ensure a decisive victory,” the functionary revealed to DT Next.
