Actor-turned-politician C Joseph Vijay is scheduled to take oath as the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu on Sunday in a landmark political development for the state.

Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar will administer the oath of office to Vijay at a grand ceremony beginning at 10 am at the Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium in Chennai.

Vijay leads Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam, popularly known as TVK, which secured a major electoral victory to form the government in the state.

The swearing-in ceremony is being viewed as a historic moment in Tamil Nadu politics, as it marks the first time a non-Dravidian party has formed the government in the state, ending decades of political dominance by the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam and the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam.

Thousands of party workers, political leaders, film personalities, and supporters are expected to attend the event. Security arrangements have also been tightened across Chennai ahead of the ceremony.
