Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay on Wednesday met Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Delhi in a politically significant interaction that came barely weeks after the actor-turned-politician took office and nearly 12 years after their last known meeting.
The meeting, held at Seva Teerth in the national capital, lasted around 25 minutes and immediately triggered political chatter over the evolving equations between the Centre and Tamil Nadu’s new leadership.
During the meeting, Vijay handed over a detailed petition to PM Modi raising a series of key Tamil Nadu concerns, including the Vande Mataram controversy, the Mekedatu project dispute, defence projects and the arrest of Tamil Nadu fishermen by the Sri Lankan Navy.
Soon after the meeting, Vijay arrived at Tamil Nadu House in Delhi, where he received a ceremonial guard of honour during his first official visit to the capital since becoming Chief Minister earlier this month. (India Today)
