Vijay’s TMK emerges as key force in Tamil Nadu NEW DELHI: Actor-turned-politician Vijay’s party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), is emerging as a formidable force in Tamil Nadu, with trends suggesting a dramatic rise for the debutant outfit, challenging established players like DMK and AIDMK in the state.According to early data from the Election Commission of India, Tamil Nadu is witnessing a rare three-way contest. According to early trends, Vijay’s party has crossed majority mark and surged past the ruling DMK, with AIADMK on the the third spot. However, trends reflected across television networks suggest a far stronger surge for TVK, with projections indicating the party could outperform both the DMK and AIADMK alliances and can potentially form government in the state on its own.Election Results 2026Election results: Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Assam, Kerala, Puducherry brace for voters’ verdictWest Bengal election results: Tight race expected as TMC faces BJP challengeTamil Nadu election results: Can Stalin retain power or will AIADMK stage a comeback?West BengalTamil NaduKeralaAssamPuducherry PreviousBJP LEADINGWest BengalParty ViewAlliance ViewSeats270/294Total: 294Note: Repolling for the Falta assembly constituency in West Bengal has been scheduled for May 21.L + WMajority: 148BJP0AITC0CONG0CPI(M)0OTH0TVK LEADINGTamil NaduParty ViewAlliance ViewSeats227/234Total: 234L + WMajority: 118TVK0AIADMK0DMK0BJP0CONG0OTH0CONG LEADINGKeralaParty ViewAlliance ViewSeats124/140Total: 140L + WMajority: 71CONG0CPI(M)0IUML0CPI0BJP0OTH0BJP LEADINGAssamParty ViewAlliance ViewSeats117/126Total: 126L + WMajority: 64BJP0CONG0AGP0AIUDF0OTH0BJP LEADINGPuducherryParty ViewAlliance ViewSeats22/30Total: 30L + WMajority: 16BJP0AINRC0CONG0DMK0OTH0 Next12345Source: PValue This marks a striking departure from pre-poll expectations. Most exit polls had predicted a comfortable return for the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK)-led alliance under Chief Minister M. K. Stalin. Surveys by India Today-Axis My India and Times Now-JVC, however, stood out for forecasting a strong debut for TVK.

. NEW DELHI: In a major policy shift, the Centre will now screen all children from birth to 18 years for diabetes and provide free, lifelong treatment through the public health system, expanding its flagship Rashtriya Bal Swasthya Karyakram (RBSK) to address a growing burden of the disease in younger age groups.The guidance document, released by the Union health ministry at a national public health summit, lays down a structured national framework for screening, diagnosis, treatment and long-term management of childhood diabetes. It integrates community- and school-based screening with district-level care, aiming to ensure early detection and continuity of treatment.The rollout is part of the Centre’s revamp of RBSK 2.0, which adopts a lifecycle approach from birth to 18 years and expands its “4Ds” framework to include non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, along with mental health and behavioural conditions.
