AMMK chief T.T.V. Dhinakaran alleged that the TVK submitted a photocopy of a forged letter to the Tamil Nadu Governor, claiming AMMK's lone MLA-elect supports their bid to form government. The accusation escalates tensions during the government formation process.

AMMK chief T.T.V. Dhinakaran accused the TVK of presenting a forged letter to the Tamil Nadu Governor, claiming it shows support from AMMK's lone MLA-elect, Kamaraj. Dhinakaran stated the document was fabricated and does not reflect his party's position.

The dispute emerged as TVK staked claim to form the state government, submitting the letter as proof of legislative backing. Dhinakaran demanded an investigation into the authenticity of the document and warned legal action.

The Tamil Nadu Governor has not commented on the verification of the letter. The Election Commission is expected to confirm the final results and party affiliations before inviting any coalition to form the government. The court will resume hearing on Tuesday if disputes remain unresolved.
