On Sunday, the AMMK chief warned that he would demand a probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation if the lone AMMK MLA, S Kamaraj, is made a minister in the Vijay government.The statement has added fresh political tension in Tamil Nadu just days after the Vijay-led government survived the confidence motion in the Assembly.Dhinakaran Removes His Lone MLAThe controversy began after S Kamaraj, the only MLA from Dhinakaran\u2019s party, voted in favour of the TVK government during the trust vote. Kamaraj represents Mannargudi and his support became politically significant because the TVK government was short of the majority mark after the election results.Following the vote, Dhinakaran expelled Kamaraj from the party. He accused the TVK leadership of indulging in political \u201chorse-trading\u201d to secure support from smaller parties and individual MLAs. According to Dhinakaran, the TVK allegedly negotiated with Kamaraj and promised him benefits in exchange for backing the government.\u201cYou conducted negotiations with our MLA. You promised him something and brought him over. If this isn\u2019t horse-trading, then what is?\u201d Dhinakaran said while attacking the ruling party.Allegations of Forged Support Letter and AI VideoDhinakaran also alleged that the TVK used a forged support letter and even an AI-generated video to project Kamaraj\u2019s backing for Vijay\u2019s government.The AMMK leader did not publicly release detailed evidence regarding these allegations, but his remarks have sparked intense political discussion in the state. The accusations are significant because artificial intelligence and manipulated media have increasingly become concerns in modern political campaigns.Political observers say the claims could become a major issue if further evidence emerges in the coming weeks.Why Kamaraj\u2019s Vote Was ImportantThe trust vote became crucial because the TVK government did not secure a full majority on its own in the Assembly elections. The party reportedly won 108 seats, falling short of the majority mark by around 10 seats. However, support from smaller parties and independent legislators helped Vijay cross the required number during the floor test.Kamaraj\u2019s support therefore became symbolically and politically important for the government\u2019s stability. Dhinakaran claims this support was obtained through unfair political bargaining, while the ruling camp has maintained that MLAs backed Vijay voluntarily.During his remarks, Dhinakaran also questioned the long-term survival of Vijay\u2019s government. He claimed the administration would not remain stable for more than six months and described the current political phase as a \u201cbad time\u201d for the ruling party.\u201cThe life of this government is swaying,\u201d Dhinakaran said, suggesting that the coalition supporting Vijay could weaken in the future.He specifically referred to smaller allies like:Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK)Left parties supporting the governmentAccording to him, the changing political situation in Tamil Nadu could make it difficult for these parties to continue supporting the TVK government over the long term. However, Dhinakaran did not provide detailed reasons behind his prediction.TVK Government Appears Stable for NowDespite the criticism, the Vijay-led government currently appears politically secure. After surviving the floor test, the administration is expected to remain stable at least for the next several months. ye pade Even opposition parties such as the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) have reportedly indicated that they are not planning immediate attempts to destabilise the government. Political analysts believe Vijay\u2019s massive public popularity and the emotional support from his fan base continue to strengthen the new administration during its early phase. However, they also point out that governing a state is very different from electoral campaigning, and maintaining political alliances will be one of Vijay\u2019s biggest challenges.AIADMK Crisis Also DeepensDhinakaran also commented on the growing crisis within the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK). The party is currently facing internal divisions, with a rebel faction led by:CV ShanmugamSP VelumaniAccording to Dhinakaran, the rebel MLAs do not have enough numbers to escape disqualification under the anti-defection law.He pointed out that the AIADMK currently has 47 MLAs, while the rebel group reportedly enjoys support from only 25 legislators. To legally avoid disqualification, the rebels would require support from at least 32 MLAs. Dhinakaran argued that backing the TVK government in the name of reviving \u201cAmma\u2019s government\u201d could damage both the rebel leaders and their supporters politically.AIADMK\u2019s Struggles After JayalalithaaThe AMMK chief also reflected on the larger decline of the AIADMK since the death of J Jayalalithaa in 2016. According to him, the party has now suffered four consecutive electoral defeats and continues to face internal instability.Dhinakaran suggested that hurried political decisions by rebel leaders may further weaken efforts to rebuild a united opposition force in Tamil Nadu. Political experts believe the fragmentation of AIADMK support has indirectly benefited Vijay\u2019s rapid rise in state politics.Vijay\u2019s Government Under SpotlightFor Chief Minister Vijay, the latest controversy is another early political test.Since taking office, Vijay has attempted to project an image of strong leadership by:retaining powerful departments like Home and Police,presenting a young Cabinet,and positioning his government as reform-oriented.But opposition leaders are already questioning:the stability of his alliances,the methods used to secure support,and the government\u2019s long-term political future.At the same time, Vijay\u2019s supporters argue that the attacks show nervousness among older political parties after the emergence of a new political force in Tamil Nadu.What Happens Next?The immediate political focus will remain on:whether Kamaraj receives any major position,whether Dhinakaran formally seeks a CBI investigation,and how stable Vijay\u2019s coalition remains in the coming months.The controversy has also highlighted how quickly Tamil Nadu politics is changing after Vijay\u2019s entry into active governance.For now, the TVK government has survived its first major Assembly test. But opposition attacks, alliance management, and internal political equations are expected to keep the state\u2019s political atmosphere highly charged in the months ahead."},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"TTV Dhinakaran Targets Vijay Government, Warns of CBI Probe Over \u2018Horse-Trading","item":"https:\/\/up24hindi.in\/ttv-dhinakaran-targets-vijay-government\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
