T.N. Election 2026: TVK Chief Vijay Accuses Chennai Police of Blocking Campaign Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) president Vijay claimed on Friday that the Greater Chennai Police and local officials had denied permission for his planned election campaign in Perambur Assembly constituency, calling the action a “fascist attack on democracy.” The campaign was scheduled for Saturday, March 28, 2026, at Mullai Nagar junction in Perambur. Vijay alleged that the DMK government had repeatedly delayed or rejected his requests, citing various reasons, and that officials were acting as agents of the ruling party to suppress his party’s activities. Vijay stated that his party had submitted an application for the campaign two days prior to the event. However, on the day before the scheduled meeting, the Greater Chennai Corporation had dug pits and installed barricades at the location, which he described as an abrupt and suspicious move. He questioned how these obstacles had appeared so suddenly, suggesting deliberate interference. The police conducted an inspection and claimed that the venue could not accommodate 3,000 people, leading to the rejection of the campaign permit. Vijay criticized the DMK government for its alleged support of the obstruction, arguing that the act reflected an “authoritarian mindset” aimed at silencing opposition voices. He accused the ruling party of fearing TVK’s growing public support and warned that such anti-democratic actions would ultimately lead to the DMK’s downfall. Later that evening, District Election Officer J. Kumaragurubaran denied Vijay’s allegations, stating that the Chennai District Election Office would process applications according to standard procedures.#vijay #dmk #tamil_naga_vettri_kazhagam #greater_chennai_police #perambur_assembly_constituency
