Tamil Manila Congress Aims to Unite Opposition Against DMK

The president of the Tamil Manila Congress (TMC), G K Vasan, announced plans to unite all political parties opposing the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) in Tamil Nadu. Speaking at a public meeting in Chennai on October 3, 2023, to commemorate the 123rd birth anniversary of former chief minister K Kamaraj, Vasan emphasized the urgency of defeating the DMK in the upcoming 2026 assembly election.
Vasan stated, “TMC will work to unite all parties that are against DMK to defeat the DMK government in the 2026 election.” He highlighted the deteriorating law and order situation in the state, asserting that the only solution is to remove the DMK from power.
Opposition Campaigns Gaining Momentum
During his address, Vasan referenced the ‘Makkalai Kaappom, Tamizhagathai Meetpom’ campaign led by Edappadi K Palaniswami, general secretary of the AIADMK. He described the campaign as a success, stating, “The campaign will add further strength to our alliance.”
The TMC leader criticized the DMK government for failing to facilitate several Union government schemes in Tamil Nadu, blaming this for the state’s stagnation. “Tamil Nadu has not grown because of this,” Vasan remarked, adding that a future government formed by their alliance would work collaboratively with the Union government. He emphasized, “If we want 100% growth for Tamil Nadu, we need to have a smooth relationship with the Union government.”
Vasan’s remarks reflect a strategic shift among opposition parties in Tamil Nadu, who are increasingly rallying to challenge the DMK’s authority ahead of the 2026 elections. By consolidating their efforts, the TMC and its allies aim to present a formidable front against the ruling party, addressing significant issues affecting the state’s governance and development.
As the political landscape evolves, the effectiveness of these alliances will be closely monitored in the lead-up to the elections.
