TVK Vijay Election Campaign: Surprise Visit Energises Cadres
Vijay, who is contesting from both Trichy East and Perambur, held discussions with party functionaries on campaign strategy and local issues during his visit. His sudden appearance took even local organisers by surprise, quickly attracting supporters and volunteers in large numbers.
In a symbolic gesture, he drew a whistle—the party’s election symbol—outside a local party office, a move that resonated strongly with cadres and onlookers.

Door-to-Door Outreach Marks First For TVK Chief
In a notable shift in campaign style, Vijay personally went door-to-door in Perambur, seeking votes from residents. This marked the first time he undertook such direct voter outreach since launching his party.
The effort is being seen as an attempt to build grassroots connect in a tightly contested election, especially as he faces established alliances led by Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) and All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK), along with the Naam Tamilar Katchi (NTK).
After interacting with voters and party workers, Vijay returned to Panayur following internal consultations with senior leaders.
Final Phase Campaign Heats Up
With only four days left for campaigning to conclude, sources indicate that Vijay is likely to campaign in Cuddalore and Dharmapuri in the coming days, though no official confirmation has been issued.
Meanwhile, his surprise outreach in Perambur has boosted morale among party cadres, who are intensifying efforts through whirlwind tours across constituencies.
As the countdown to polling day continues, all eyes are on how Vijay’s independent bid will fare against well-entrenched political alliances. The results, scheduled to be declared on May 4, are expected to offer a clear picture of his party’s electoral strength in Tamil Nadu’s evolving political landscape.
