Police said party cadres had gathered at the venue before the time permitted by authorities, leading to inconvenience for the public. Officials also flagged the use of nearly 30 sound systems during a roadshow, alleging that it caused disturbance and disrupted traffic movement in the area. Vijay’s TVK is making its electoral debut in the 2026 Assembly elections. He launched his campaign from Perambur, one of the two constituencies he is contesting, along with Tiruchirappalli East.
