Ranjana Nachiyar's Political Shift: From TVK to DMK

Actress Ranjana Nachiyar has made a significant political move by joining the ruling DMK. Her decision comes amidst her allegations of disrespect towards women within her former party, TVK, which she claims is exacerbated by its leadership's indifferent attitude.

Having been previously affiliated with the BJP for around eight years, Ranjana parted ways with the saffron party in early 2025, primarily due to disputes over the imposition of Hindi, supporting regional parties' dual language policy stance in Tamil Nadu.

Ranjana's transition to the DMK symbolizes the shifting political dynamics in the state, as she aligns herself with Chief Minister M K Stalin, aiming for a more respectful and inclusive political environment.
