VCK chief: 25 seats in DMK bloc is Vanniyarasu's opinion

The number of seats will be decided during alliance negotiations, the party chief said.

Thirumavalavan clarified, "It is not our practice to predetermine the number of seats. While it is natural for a party to aspire for more, the decision will be made considering the alliance dynamics and in the presence of all stakeholders."
