A Sivaganga DMK councillor has asked sanitation workers to stop using whistles and switch to speakers for garbage collection, citing cleanliness awareness. The move has sparked political speculation due to the whistle being TVK’s election symbol
The Election Commission has allotted the whistle symbol to actor Vijay’s Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam, prompting party workers to begin campaigns across Tamil Nadu. Party leaders said the symbol reflects public expectations ahead of the 2026 Assembly elections, which will be TVK’s first electoral test
