Puducherry polls: TVK to fly solo as AINRC tie-up talks fail; multi-cornered contest looms

Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) will contest the 2026 Puducherry elections independently after alliance talks with AINRC failed. TVK's decision sets the stage for a multi-cornered contest, with the incumbent NR Congress-BJP front facing challenges from DMK, Naam Tamilar Katchi, and TVK. Vijay is set to launch his campaign in Puducherry next week.
