The fledgling TVK opposed the ‘One nation, one election’ proposal and said the attempt to implement it went against democracy and condemned the move.

In its first meeting of district office bearers and the executive committee here, the party deliberated on ‘strengthening’ its organisational structure, discussed reaching out to the people and passed 26 resolutions.

Backing the demand to scrap the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test, TVK wanted education to be shifted to the state list from the concurrent list of the Constitution. The party said its ‘ideology is secularism and social justice,’ which is a commitment to harmony and unity of all the people in Tamil Nadu.
