How’s the scene in #Villivakkam? Here’s what people said when I asked who they will vote for through a random sampling. All uncut videos. “DMK is strong here. We voted for #AIADMK when “Amma” was alive… then shifted to #DMK. Now we will vote for #Vijay. We believe he will give safety to women, and want to give him a chance.

#Chennai mayor R Priya skips state govt meetings, yet to meet chief minister C Joseph Vijay officially. A statement too hasn’t been sent from the mayor office through yet even after the chief minister took over the MAWS dept which is GCC’s parent department. What can be the ramifications of this? Will this affect the state and Chennai Corporation equations? How things will turn out? Watch my detailed discussion in Samayam Tamil

Royapuram - a thread. Who leads? Find out in this thread from the extensive amount of people I spoke to from the constituency. Battle ground #Royapuram: The love that Royapuram people have for #AIADMK ex-minister D Jayakumar remains a huge factor in the 2026 assembly race. His good will and personal rapport cuts across sections of people. Even though people are beneficiaries of state govt welfare schemes, they weigh the personal contribution that the former minister has done for them in their personal lives from being there from marriages, deaths, education support and life events. While this factor puts him as the central figure of the race, the biggest challenge for him is to regain a section of the 40,000-odd Muslim voters who didn’t vote for him in 2021 after he abstained from the CAA & NRC protests in Chennai’s Shaheen Bagh. The DMK too has fielded Subair Khan, son of former minister Rahaman Khan. Subair his DMK’s first ever Muslim candidate in Royapuram. However, he lacks the political experience compared to Jayakumar who’s a four-time minister. Subair and TVK’s Vijay Damo too are from Royapettah and Velachery, giving Jayakumar an home-boy edge. In short, Royapuram is turning into a battle of DMK’s welfare policies vs Jayakumar’s personal rapport. (1/n)

Watch | Can Rs 50 change your life? How this Tamil Nadu model can be a new model for the young India. In India, millions chase the same dream — a govt medical seat, a govt job, a better life. In Kolathur, at chief minister M.K.Stalin’s constituency, the chief minister’s co-working and co-learning centre is quietly helping level that playing field. For Rs 50 (half day) and Rs 100 (full day), youngsters preparing for NEET, JEE and UPSC get access to air-conditioned study space, Wi-Fi, desks, newspapers and civil service books. Monthly packages cost Rs 2,500 — far lower than many private centres. Startups and professionals use the same space too — 40 co-working seats, conference rooms and shared networking. Students travel up to 20 km to study here. Some say the quiet helps them focus. Others say the peer network sharpens their preparation. This TN model can be a model for the entire country. PMO India Narendra Modi I present, along with Camera & Video by Ramya N for TOI India Watch full video at:

Speaking to me, on his comment when he said he lost in 2021 because of BJP and how that has changed now in 2026, former minister Jayakumar during his campaign trail in Royapuram said the alliance wth BJP is only electoral. “Even Anna kept alliance with Rajaji in 1967 to defeat Congress. Like that, our only goal is to defeat DMK…I am beyond caste, creed and religion. I’ve eaten the most biriyanis in Muslim marriages. I’m a biriyani lover. I like both mutton and chicken. Muslims are welcoming me,” he said.
