Opportunity for Vijay and TVK

With Congress support providing administrative guidance, Vijay has a real chance to deliver. If he appoints competent bureaucrats, cracks the whip on police, expands the force, and prioritizes law and order by cracking down on the drug mafia, it would be a solid start.

Key priorities should be:

● Only affordable freebies

● Aggressive push on infrastructure must continue and fast-track DMK era infrastructure projects

● Implement Centre’s labour laws effectively to attract investments.

● Drop DMK-style toxic anti-Centre politics and work with the Centre collaboratively.

● Submit proper DPRs for Coimbatore & Adyar Metro, secure more central funds, and ensure efficient scheme implementation

● Maintain fiscal discipline

● Crackdown on auto mafia and ensure autos are priced at normal prices and meter is used.

Best case: Major governance upgrade.

Minimum expectation: Maintain DMK-era status quo on development while significantly improving law and order.

Hope he delivers and doesn’t turn into another Arvind Kejriwal.

Need for an Industrial manufacturing corridor in Eastern Gangetic plain.

Hey guys now that the entire Gangetic plain starting from Uttarkhand all the way to Kolkata now entirely ruled by BJP, I feel the Central and the state Governments in these states together can actually achieve what Gujarat , Maharashtra and Tamilnadu did via Industrialization. Like this Eastern part of India especially Gangetic plain has been densely populated. I feel we can bring in here in these states low level manufacturing like say Textiles, Manufacturing of Sandals and Footballs , and consumer goods which China does. Like the entire Gangetic plain region stretching from Uttarkhand to West Bengal has most fertile lands, abundant water supply, bottomless pit of manpower. Central Govt can actually plan a manufacturing corridor sprawling across the plains and Crack a whip on lower level Bureaucracy and getting the regulatory mechanisms correct and crushing the Labour unions who are agents of Congress Samajwadi Party and TMC. I feel this Gangetic belt is a goldmine for manufacturing and it must be taken as a long term project and if this happens trust me nothing stops India from becoming a Manufacturing giant which basically means a superpower. Industrialization is the only way to and Casteism and islamist extremism. This region the Govt must prioritize. States like Gujarat Maharashtra Karnataka Tamilnadu Telangana and UP under Yogi and Haryana. Govt must focus on this gangetic plain and what I also feel is a similar push must happen in Assam and Odisha as well. Eastern India is sitting upon a massive potential with plenty of mines and manpower and water supply and Govt must harness it conaidering fact BJP is ruling all the states I mentioned.

I am just tired of TVK supporters

Hey guys hear me out. When I pointed out certain facts on how actually DMK and ADMK brought abt certain level of industrialization, My family ironically most of them are ex DMK voters claim ADMK didnt industrialized TN. Irony is that ADMK didnt ruin TN in those 10 years and they retained status quo and DMK picked up the momentum. But then when I point this out constant whaterboutry of what BJP did what DMK did blah blah without proper facts and blaming DMK and BJP instead of responding. Worrying part is ppl in 40s and 50s are supporting TVK while younger member are opposing it. Yk its terrible. Like idk what the clown Vijay did even the so called sensible older generation has fell for it. Man its insane and annoying. God save this state. As a BJP supporter I would have preferred DMK over TVK any day. DMK under PTR, TRB Rajaa, Stalin, Anbil Mahesh, Udhayanidhi have bought more investment to our state than anyone. Like DMK supporters listened to me but TVK oh god its just terrible. Honestly a BJP and A DMK supporter can talk with each other but TVK is just terrible. God save TN from Tharkuri Vetri Kazhagam and hope DMK comes to power. I am scared honestly our state will turn into Bihar or Punjab .

Lets say Vijay isnt able to seek support and with no party in majority, what could then happen? Could it be DMK ADMK coming together? Highly unlikely considering past and if they come probably it will be death knell to ADMK. Or could the assembly be dissolved and President rule for sometime and fresh elections taking place? If Fresh elections were to happen after few months I feel that DMK will be more cautious and they will choose better candidates and they will sweep TN assembly polls and ADMK to will become the primary opposition and both the majors going after TVK and its leaders considering how cheap the behavior of TVK supporters were in the name of celebration and massive propaganda against them even by neutrals? Honestly at this point I wish President rule happens and at next assembly elections we return back to status quo and DMK sweep the assembly polls and Stalin back as cm coz honestly I dont want my state to become another Punjab or Bihar. Ukrainians voted Zelensky for change only to realize how he is a comedian and a clown and screwed things with Russia while the establishment politicians were pragmatic and never irked Russia that much. Same in Punjab where the state now has became a drug menace, along with Khalistani extremism and economic downfall and excessive Freebies with Punjab being the worst performing state coz they again voted for Bhagwant Mann from AAP while traditional parties like Congress and Akali Dal failing but now they're regretting why they voted for Bhagwant Mann. Would Vijay become another Bhagwant Mann or Arvind Kejriwal or Zelensky or Justin Trudeau? We never know and I genuinely wish one of the Dravidian parties come back coz I dont want my state to de industrialize and become hub for caste politics.

Hey guys for starters I aint a Bengali and I am from Tamilnadu. I have heard a lot about how Bengal and Punjab where the regions that revolted the most against British and even against the Mughals and sultanates due to which we in South could live peaceful. Bengal will bring out the real essence of Hindu culture and Hindutva where Hindus traditionally always ate meat , were intellectuals at core and have been tolerant and accommodating of ideas and women were at the front of it . Bengal resembles what real Hindutva is contrary to the Fake Hindutva some wokes and lefties try to push. I remember how many times in Chennai I would search what BJP is doing in West Bengal and are they really interested in it much more than Tamilnadu or Kerala coz Ik if BJP doesnt win West Bengal it aint possible for them in Tamilnadu. West Bengal and Tamilnadu are actually pretty similar in certain aspects and damn the victory feels so good. While Gujarat and Maharashtra brings the financial power for Hindutva, Bengal brings the intellectual and the cultural power to Hindutva in that sense, Bengal is the soul of India. Hope BJP appoints a strong Bengali speaking leader who is popular at grassroots and fences the border immediately and pass UCC and Crackdown on goons and mafia culture in Bengal like they did in UP and bring in more infrastructure there. Eventhough as a BJP supporter in Tamilnadu I feel betrayed by the party for not making an effort, I can understand the fact Bengal needed more effort than TN. Good that Bengal is saved. Hope Amit Bhai and Modiji sack the old guard leaders in TN and trust me when I say this, if BJP works atleast at 30 to 40 percent of hardwork in Bengal what they did to TN and build the base here, they can win here. Ik it will take time but I'll wait till the day. With the commies and pseudo commies like TMC overthrown and Lenin statue demolished, wish a day comes where in TN Statue of Ev Ramasamy is pulled down. Congrats guys we won. Bengal is the real antidote and boost the Hindutva project needs.

This man worked even harder than Vijay on ground, in 2024, built a solid coalition, created the narrative that DMK is corrupt and bad and talked abt reality and real life politics and what he will do in different against DMK and ADMK. Where were all those who wanted change now and voted for clown of an actor didnt vote for this guy and his party in 2024? As a state we are screwed. Punjab voted Bhagwant Mann and AAP similarly and that state is in doldrums. Arvind Kejriwal in Delhi as well. Screw this state which has collectively lower iq than Pakistan or Bangladesh whicb has so much obsession over actors. Add to it actually for all criticisms DMK gets it actually Industrialized Tamil Nadu and in this term more jobs have been created than other terms combined. SIPCOT in every district and employment and Industrialization is the only way to eradicate Casteism, religious extremism and poverty. Chennai and various other cities were getting their infrastructure upgradation. There was a flyover in Chennai which was stalled for so long which caused traffic issues and now with that project revived by Stalin it has helped us in easing traffic. Add to it there were some close ppl in my circle who bought land in Parandur region hoping airport will come now what will happen? This crazy lunatic Vijay will cancel Parandur and that flyover project and many other factories will be shutdown. Add to it Minority appeasement at high levels and freebies that will literally ruin our state treasury and will push our state towards de industrialization. We are screwed. Andhra Pradesh voted Jagan similarly and the state was screwed and it will take years for AP to recover. Now TN is heading in that trajectory. If you have issues with the Govt go to courts and demand accountability instead voting for a crazy actor who doesnt have anything to him except being a mediocre actor who literally copy pasted MGR formula. Idk when will cinema craze end in our states and thanks to the crazy lunatic DMK which started this. This is just repeat of Animal farm.

Exactly 2024 2 years back in Lok Sabha elections I remember Annamalai was slogging off and working so hard on ground and campaigning hard for BJP and their allies and genuinely promised a change and built narrative that DMK must be overthrown but how many of them went out and voted for a guy who genuinely had a vision and an economic idea but the same crowd are now claiming they hate DMK and they want change. Srsly are these ppl nuts? Had this crowd which came out and voted for Vijay if they voted for Annamalai and BJP I would have appreciated them but clearly it shows that if India has Iq of 76 Tamilnadu has Iq of 36. What's the use of all education and stuff if we chose an actor who barely doesnt even give his economic policy or vision or what he is gonna different from Dravidian parties and these ppl blindly went and voted for him. And first of all these voters have no right to lecture Bihar or Haryana or any other state after voting for Vijay. DMK for all its criticisms they built roads and infrastructure which is needed for Chennai and in various cities and nearly every district in Tamilnadu got a SIPCOT and we literally had double digit economic growth and stability for first time after 10 years of corrupt and weak ADMK rule and Chennai was on its way to get a second airport and surpass Bangalore to once again become economic hub of South India but damn we dont like ppl who genuinely do good. I can understand rural voters and voters in down South rejecting DMK but in Chennai Tiruvallur, Vellore, Kanchipuram where TN's lion share of Industrial investments are there and infrastructure was built, this entire belt rejected DMK. Clearly just shows our lower iq as a state. Clearly we have become a state with bunch of educated fools and IQ of 36. Mark my words this man Vijay is gonna screw our state and push our state backwards by 2 decades. DMK and ADMK yes they have issues but they industrialized our state, Banned student politics in Universities, invested in Health and education and Crushed the stupid commies and the labor unions whom were agents of Foreign NGOs who want to deindustrialize our state. Bihar pre Lalu era was an Industrial powerhouse, but Lalu destroyed the state within 2 terms, Kejriwal destroyed a beautiful Delhi within 10 years of his power while Congress actually kept the city clean and built infrastructure, and West Bengal was as Industiralized and rich as Maharashtra and Tamilnadu but West Bengal was screwed coz the stupid Commies came to power. Clearly TN is heading that way thanks to Tharkuri Vetri Kazhagam and for a fact how we have educated low IQ voters who vote for actors with blind craze. Call me whatever I dont give a damn. Wait and watch how Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh is gonna surpass us in terms of industrialization while we will be lagging behind because we have elected a clown of an actor who is full of himself and the man who ran away in stampede instead of helping his ppl and summoning ppl to his home the victims instead of going and meeting them. Screw this state for still having craze on cinema and obsession over cinema and DMK is the reason why Vijay won. DMK turned cinema to propaganda machine in 1967 and Vijay benefited it. Even now I am deeply skeptical of Vijay's governance and how this man is gonna ruin our state.

Chennai , Kanchipuram, Tiruvallur, Vellore and Trichy are basically DMK's bastions and DMK tbh has actually worked there. They have built enough infrastructure and bridge and various other projects and most of the investments too went there and we literally had double digit economic growth under DMK and we were taking in so much of investments. Idk srsly why DMK lost in these bastions and was there really so much anti incumbency against DMK that even Stalin lost at Kolathur? So what is the future of DMK and ADMK? Does it mean that TVK will eat into DMK votes and entire DMK voterbase will shift to TVK and BJP will go after ADMK and ADMK voterbase shifting to BJP and would it be BJP vs TVK in 2030s? Let's be honest, EPS is in his 70s and Stalin is too old as well. I mean DMK still has Udhayanidhi and even he is smart but still idk. So clearly its just confusing to see the future of our state.

Honestly winning an election in Tamilnadu after 1967 as a 3rd party is truly great. Its just another level and as an actor now as cm is good. Hope Vijay doesn't turn Tamilnadu into another Bihar like how Lalu did to Bihar and Arvind Kejriwal did to Delhi and focus on working together with the Centre and implement effective governance policies and rectify the mistakes of DMK and ADMK. Anyway happy for the fact the party which wanted to eradicate Hindu Dharma is defeated by Lord Murugan's blessings and wish Udhayanidhi the man who wanted to eradicate our Dharma defeated. Congrats guys. Its gonna be interesting time to see how our politics will be. What do you guys think about this election? Let's discuss

Let's say if these leads were to be true, mark my words Truly democracy has won. Not that I support TVK and Vijay but if this trends where to hold, it shows power of people and democracy and that nothing is possible if ppl decide to bring about a change. Whatever result guys lets accept it and not abuse each other. I just hope our state continues the path of industrialization and we dont allow wokeism and student politics in universities and focus on economic growth and stability. Let's hope the new Govt isnt as horrible as Arvind Kejriwal of AAP or Lalu Yadav type Govt in TN . For all investments we got, DMK tried to cover up the drug violence, rising rapes, Caste violence in rural areas, Drug smuggling with their media ecosystem but everything failed coz its the ppl who decided and see through DMK's crap. Anyway congrats to Vijay. Hope he does good job in terms of administration
