Chief Minister Vijay has formally submitted his resignation for the Tiruchi East Assembly seat to the Legislative Assembly Secretary, opting to retain his other winning constituency.
This move has immediately sparked political speculation regarding the upcoming by-election, which will be the first major electoral test for the TVK government after assuming power.
