🚨 Tamil Nadu just exposed BJP’s playbook for destroying democracy.
TVK won 108 seats. 35% vote share. 1.7 crore votes. The single largest party in a 234-seat house by a massive margin. The people spoke with absolute clarity.
BJP got 1 MLA from Tamil Nadu. They lost the mandate comprehensively. But through a centrally-appointed Governor with an RSS background, they are attempting to hold the state’s democratic transition hostage.
Governor Arlekar refused to invite Vijay for oath. Demanded he “prove majority at Raj Bhavan” - a condition that exists nowhere in the Constitution.
Article 164 says the Governor shall appoint the CM who commands confidence. Not “after proving it to me in private.”
The Supreme Court in Rameshwar Prasad v. Union of India (2006) was crystal clear; Governors cannot act as agents of the Centre to destabilize or delay popularly elected governments. This isn’t grey area. This is settled law.
Remember Karnataka 2018? Yeddyurappa (BJP) had 105 seats; fewer than Vijay today. The BJP-appointed Governor invited him immediately. No conditions. No “prove your numbers first.”
Maharashtra 2019? Fadnavis was sworn in at 5:30 AM without a majority. The country woke up to a fait accompli. No Governor demanded signatures upfront then. Rules change when BJP is the beneficiary.
This is the same party that used Governors in Goa, Manipur, and Meghalaya to bypass the single largest party and hand power to BJP-friendly coalitions. Tamil Nadu is just the latest chapter.
This is not about Vijay. This is not about TVK. This is about whether the people’s mandate means anything in Narendra Modi’s India, or whether a Delhi-appointed Governor can simply override 1.7 crore voters.
The Constitution is not BJP’s property. Federalism is not their gift to give or take.
Tamil Nadu’s voters deserve better. And every Indian watching this should be afraid, because today it’s Tamil Nadu, tomorrow it could be your state. 🇮🇳

@elonmusk Request to all rich business men to send $1M to poor men every month from their profit. That is the better service you can give to the common man.
@Panks_Arora@IRCTCofficial Yes, agree with you it is totally looting travellers from IRCTC. Even waiting list tickets are not confirmed then also they are charging to refund not confirmed ticket amount. Why does IRCTC have this flexibility and no one from Railways or govt is questioned and controlling it?
@TrumpUpdateHQ Did they ask for Palestine from Israel? Why, Palestine is not a country and they are not people. Ceasefire should be there from all the countries and peace 🕊️ should be there in all the countries. Stop war focus on growth and help each other to become good nations. Peace 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
