Apart from BJP, which is believed to have the loyalty of many of the AIADMK rebel leaders now ensconced within the TVK camp, the other gainer is the Santiago family
While Vijay’s key strategist Aadhav Arjuna is a minister in the TVK government, his mother-in-law Leema Rose Martin is an AIADMK MLA, and brother-in-law and critic Jose Charles leads a BJP ally in Puducherry.
After being sworn in as Chief Minister, TVK founder C Joseph Vijay on Sunday said he would soon release a White Paper on Tamil Nadu’s finances, accusing the DMK of leaving the state “in a bad shape” with a debt of Rs 10 lakh crore.
