Nobody grew up with the intention of being a cleaner, cashier, or security guard. We all had big dreams, but life happened. Dear son, Respect other people’s jobs.
One thing I admire about GenZ is their ability to leave any situation by saying "the vibes are a bit off, I'm out"
Millennials will sit there and take it until their soul comes out to drag them away.
Chief Minister Joseph Vijay proves that he is a Nationalist against all odds!
I was arguably one of his harshest critics before the elections. One cannot imagine the kind of words I used. I was ruthless. But he is steadily dispelling many of the suspicions I once had about him.
I thought he would be an inaccessible, narcissistic megalomaniac who would never leave his Panayur bungalow - But he reports to office every day and quietly goes about his work without any hype.
I thought his hardcore fans (a.k.a. anils) would wreak havoc and turn Tamil Nadu into a graveyard - But barring a few sporadic incidents, his fans and supporters have behaved well.
I thought he would indulge in blind anti-BJP and anti-PM Modi politics - But he seems to enjoy a cordial, friendly, and highly pragmatic relationship with Delhi. He has not used terms such as “Ondriyam.”
Most importantly, I thought @TVKPartyHQ would be worse than @arivalayam - But his government has not committed any grave mistakes so far. In fact, it has delivered fairly good governance.
I am pleasantly surprised to see the National Anthem being sung in the Tamil Nadu Assembly after several years.
Whenever I hear the National Anthem being sung/played, I have tears in my eyes because I am a Proud Patriotic Indian.
@TVKVijayHQ is ticking many of the ‘right’ boxes and is becoming more and more desirable and acceptable, even to those who once criticized him harshly.
Keep it up, Sir! @CMOTamilnadu
Actually, animals are the real victims on Earth. They didn't do anything wrong. They didn't try to destroy humans or our homes. Their only crime is that they exist.
The legend who put Tamil soil on the silver screen forever.
A visionary who gave Tamil cinema its soul has left us , but his footprints will remain for the generations to come
Rest in the frames you created, #Bharathiraja Sir 🙏🏽

Another superlative achievement by the Joseph Vijay administration - a source of unbearable urinal stench in the garb of a TASMAC bar has finally been shut down in Shenoy Nagar!
Residents of Shenoy Nagar, which falls under the Anna Nagar constituency, are jumping in joy because the TASMAC bar on First Cross Street (allegedly owned by a DMK-linked strongman), which had been a major nuisance and headache for residents for years, has finally been shut down. People say this has brought enormous relief to the locality.
Mind you, this TASMAC bar was located barely 500 feet away from a government girls’ school. Despite repeated complaints from residents over the years, and despite the proximity to a girls’ school, no serious effort was allegedly made earlier to shut it down.
This TASMAC outlet had effectively become a permanent stench point in an otherwise decent residential neighborhood. Respectable families avoided using that road altogether whether for walking, riding, or even driving. People allegedly consumed alcohol openly outside the TASMAC shop, on roadsides, near parked vehicles, and in full public view. The bar reportedly had no proper toilet facilities, which led to the unbearable urine stench that engulfed the area for years.
For any decent resident, the entire stretch had become an eyesore and a public-health nuisance. Finally, it has now been shut down.
This is yet another testament to the resolve shown by @CMOTamilnadu to crack down on TASMAC bars located near schools, colleges, hospitals, residential zones, and places of worship.
After many years, residents have finally started using this road comfortably again for daily commute, as the bar had reportedly remained a nuisance throughout both the DMK and ADMK regimes.
People say it was Anna Nagar @TVKPartyHQ MLA #RamKumar who persistently pushed for the removal, coordinated with multiple authorities, and ultimately ensured that it happened. Not only was the TASMAC bar shut down, but the locality has also reportedly been freed from the nuisance, disorderly crowd, and unbearable urine stench associated with it. Residents of Shenoy Nagar are profusely thanking Anna Nagar MLA #RamKumar for this intervention.
And ultimately, none of this would likely have happened without the administrative backing and go-ahead provided by @CMOTamilnadu Joseph Vijay!
A beautiful and feel-good gesture from Chief Minister Joseph Vijay!
This was genuinely nice and refreshing to watch. @CMOTamilnadu looked calm, relaxed, and, most importantly, authentic - unlike the staged optics by the previous @arivalayam government.
This is a fresh and innovative way of encouraging and motivating young talent.
The Chief Minister losing to the Grandmaster on camera in just four moves made the moment even more wholesome. Well played!
Somehow, I feel @TVKVijayHQ enjoys everything associated with public life except the core stress of being @CMOTamilnadu 😉😉😉
No wonder so many people who have not won a single election are jealous of him!
The one stellar achievement of TVK govt thus far is they have stopped the procedure of taking 3 lakhs as annual license renewal fee from matriculation schools across the state. Sad that nobody is talking about this.
Hats off CM Vijay sir. 🙏

Two spectacular decisions silently taken by Chief Minister Joseph Vijay - without hype or theatrics!
Supporting educational institutions instead of burdening them!
The annual license renewal fee of ₹3 lakh collected from matriculation schools across the State has been completely abolished.
A truly commendable move that reduces the financial burden on educational institutions and supports the education sector.
By removing a recurring financial obligation, @CMOTamilnadu has taken a meaningful step towards creating a more supportive environment for schools to grow and serve students better.
TASMAC reforms - zero tolerance towards liquor-shop leakages!
Nearly ₹102 crore was allegedly being diverted every month through unofficial “party fund” collections embedded within TASMAC operations.
Under the previous regime, collections were allegedly made under the label of “party funds” from alcohol sales - ₹90 for hot cases, ₹40 for beer, and ₹20 for wine.
CM Joseph Vijay’s government has reportedly put a complete stop to this. By changing the collection mechanism, this money is now said to be going directly into the official government account.
This single reform could potentially prevent corruption and bring an additional ₹1,200 crore in annual revenue to the State.
Even though the government may lose revenue through the abolition of annual license renewal fees from matriculation schools, the government appears to be compensating for that by streamlining TASMAC revenue leakages.
This is a fitting response to those who mocked the claim that @TVKVijayHQ could provide good governance.
Brilliant Sir! @CMOTamilnadu

Congratulations to the Tamil Nadu government for filing an FIR against KN Nehru!
This was one of our very first demands to @CMOTamilnadu - to act against corruption.
Now that the ball has started rolling in Tamil Nadu, will @dir_ed step in as well, considering this becomes a predicate offence?
At least we are now witnessing some movement that appears meaningful and worthwhile.
@CMOTamilnadu has acted. Now let us see how @dir_ed responds.
The climax of this showdown will ultimately reveal who is truly whose B-Team!
