Vijaykant

After putting up spirited shows in the previous Assembly and Parliamentary elections, Vijaykant's DMDK is now in danger of losing state party status, thanks to its dismal performance in the just concluded polls.

His party had only six per cent vote share in the last Tamil Nadu elections, when J Jayalalithaa steamrolled all opposition. But Anbumani Ramadoss, aspiring chief minister, believes he has a chance in 2016.

Scotching speculations about a possible pre-poll pact between his party, Congress and DMDK for the Lok Sabha elections, DMK president M Karunanidhi today said there were "no indications" for the formation of such a combine.

Opposition leader in the Tamil Nadu assembly and DMDK founder Vijayakant on Thursday blamed chief minister Jayalalithaa's 'wrong approach' for Karnataka not releasing Cauvery water to the State.

Indian tennis players had mixed outings in the Tashkent Challenger as Vishnu Vardhan and Sanam Singh advanced to the second round of qualifying while Somdev Devvarman, Divij Sharan and Vijaykant Malik bowed out in the opening round here on Saturday.

Actor-turned-politician and chief of DMDK Vijaykant is observing a fast at the Jantar Mantar in Delhi on Tuesday to highlight the issue of Indian fishermen being attacked by Sri Lankan navy. Vijaykant says the new Ravana is Sri Lankan President Rajapakse and Indian government should find a solution to this issue.
