Tamil Nadu marked a historic handover as TVK chief C. Joseph Vijay took the oath as Chief Minister in Chennai’s Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium, under heavy security. Actress Trisha Krishnan, reportedly linked to Vijay, arrived early and called it a “big day for Tamil Nadu,” before offering a simple media message. She was seen in a seafoam-green silk saree with a golden-motif blouse, finished with a white gajra and red-stone jewellery. Key alliances pushed TVK past the 118-seat majority, with more cabinet expansion expected later.

The event will draw Chief Ministers from 20 states, and the newly appointed CM is expected to visit Writers’ Buildings and the Vidhan Sabha.
