Tamil Nadu is witnessing a continuing political stalemate over the formation of a government. Recently, the Tamil Nadu Makkal Congress (TVK), formed by former Chief Minister O. Panneerselvam after breaking away from the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK), has claimed to have proved its majority. However, Governor R.N. Ravi has refused to accept this claim, putting the government formation process on hold. The governor's decision has further escalated tensions among political parties.
Governor Ravi has sought an official certificate from the Speaker of the Assembly to verify TVK's majority claim. Speaker M. Appavu stated that TVK has 12 legislators, while the DMK has 137. This has raised questions about TVK's majority claim. TVK argues that it has formed a new party after breaking away from the DMK and now has a majority. However, the governor has not accepted this claim, stating that no decision on the majority can be made until a certificate is received from the Speaker.
