Abhishek Singhvi helps out TVK with legal woes, again
Singhvi appeared for TVK’s MLA from the Tirupattur assembly seat, S Sethupathi, who won by just one vote against former DMK minister KR Periyakaruppan. According to two Congress leaders, Singhvi held two meetings daily with the TVK leadership over the past week. When Tamil Nadu governor Rajendra Arlekar refused to invite Vijay to form the government, citing a lack of numbers, the TVK leaders consulted Singhvi for drafting letters to the governor and for legal advice.
Singhvi shared a picture of his meeting with Vijay in an X post, and said, “Kudos 2young team assisting me in researching &advising young #CM &his youthful colleagues ( #Aadhav Arjuna) in trying period of last 7-10 days. Irrespective of politics, new CM deserves support. Attempts 2 derail &destabilise him wl cost outsiders dear cos public is watching.”
He posted another picture with Vijay and wrote, “Great to meet such a young, dynamic (& remarkably soft-spoken) #CM, #TN. Guidance feels special when asked with humility &followed sincerely. Sad to c diverse efforts 2derail his govt formation &proud that #RG was the first to stretch himself 2support someone with #Vijay’s mandate
Two Congress functionaries agreed that Singhvi had opened a channel of communication with Vijay’s party when the Congress lawmaker appeared for TVK leader Aadhav Arjuna after the he had posted a controversial statement on social media following the Karur stampede.
