Vijay’s TVK Sets Sept. 13 Trichy Launch for Statewide Tour After Police Bar Bus-Stand Speech

The four-month weekend itinerary serves as a stress test of TVK’s grassroots machinery ahead of the 2026 Tamil Nadu elections.

Overview

  • TVK says the “Meet the People” tour will start in Trichy on September 13 and cover all 38 districts before concluding in Madurai on December 20.
  • Most events are slated for Saturdays, with one Sunday stretch in the western belt, according to the party’s published schedule.
  • General secretary N. Anand has formally asked the Tamil Nadu DGP for security and traffic regulation across all stops.
  • Trichy police denied permission for a public address at the Chathiram bus stand, prompting a revised route that ends near Marakkadai, per party planners and local reports.
  • Vijay has demanded withdrawal of police cases against Anand and TVK cadres, alleging the DMK government is trying to curb the party’s campaign.
