Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi finds itself in a familiar position of having to fight for seats after DMK’s seat sharing committee reportedly informed the VCK leadership that it cannot expect to contest in more than 2 seats in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
Earlier, VCK demanded 4 seats but had said that it would be happy to settle for a minimum of three seats, one more than the number it had contested in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. The VCK has argued that the party has grown in strength and more importantly, has contributed a lot in shaping INDIA alliance’s ideological make-up.
Addressing media persons after convening the party’s high-level committee meeting while skipping the important seat sharing talks with the DMK, Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi founder and Chidambaram M.P., Thol. Thirumvalavan, said that the Committee discussed many issues, including strategies for the election, demands that needs to be placed to the Election Commission of India.
