How a bid to make Thirumavalavan CM failed
Thol. Thirumavalvan, leader of the Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK), was unable to secure the support needed for him to become the first Chief Minister from the Scheduled Caste in Tamil Nadu. The attempt faced opposition from both the DMK and the AIADMK, who were reportedly concerned about potential backlash and criticism. Despite support from the CPI, CPI(M), and the VCK, Thirumavalvan ultimately decided against the proposal after backroom negotiations failed to garner sufficient consensus among the parties involved.
