C. Joseph Vijay, leader of the Tamilaga Vetri Kazhagam (TVK), has emerged as a significant force in Tamil Nadu politics following the 2026 Assembly elections. His victory marks the first time a Christian has become Chief Minister in the state's history and challenges the long-standing dominance of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) and All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) parties, who have alternated power for over half a century. The rise of TVK presents a new dynamic in Tamil Nadu politics.
