Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) founder and actor Vijay, in the second leg of his State-wide political tour on Saturday (September 20, 2025), questioned Chief Minister M.K. Stalin’s claims about attracting investments through his foreign visits, and asked whether the trips were “to bring investment to the State or to secure personal investments abroad.’’

Criticising the BJP and the DMK on issues concerning the fishing community in the State, Mr. Vijay said the BJP was engaged in “politics of exclusion,” pointing out that fishermen from other States were referred to as “Indian,” while those from Tamil Nadu were singled out as “Tamil fishermen.” He also charged that Mr. Stalin only writes letters on fishermen’s issues, but takes no concrete action.
