Tamil Nadu CM Vijay on Delhi visit on Wednesday, meeting with PM Modi, Rahul Gandhi on agenda

Vijay will discuss financial issues and Karnataka’s Mekedatu reservoir plan with Modi during his first visit to the national capital as chief minister.

  • Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay will meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday in New Delhi for the first time since assuming office, departing Chennai at 10 a.m. and meeting Modi at 4:30 p.m.
  • Vijay's ascent follows Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam's 108-seat Assembly victory and coalition support from Congress, Left parties, VCK and IUML, ending decades of DMK and AIADMK dominance after his May 10 oath-taking as Tamil Nadu's 13th Chief Minister.
  • The Chief Minister will submit a memorandum addressing financial matters and the Mekedatu project, having previously written Modi about Kharif season fertilizer supply and removal of the 11% cotton import duty, with senior Cabinet colleagues accompanying him.
  • Beyond Modi, Vijay is likely to meet Union Ministers and Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi, while the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam president is also scheduled to meet opposition leader Rahul Gandhi during the visit.
  • Vijay returns to Chennai on Thursday after inaugurating a Thiruvalluvar statue at Jawaharlal Nehru University, concluding a visit coordinated by the Home Secretary and reflecting Tamil Nadu's new cabinet-level AI department as a signal of technology-driven governance.
