Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) held its annual education awards for students who excelled in the Class 10 and Class 12 public exams at the R.K. Convention Centre in Chennai on 4 November 2026 — the first since party chief C. Joseph Vijay became Chief Minister. Students from Tamil Nadu and Puducherry were honoured.

State Topper Honoured

The state’s top Class 12 scorer, Rikshitha of Ariyalur district, received a certificate, a cash incentive and a gold necklace from the CM.

What Vijay Told Students

“I didn’t come here as Chief Minister, but as your elder brother, as always.”

• He said he had entered politics for the students’ welfare too, and called them the source of his strength.
• Study well and aim high — build the life you want first, then think of your town, your community and Tamil Nadu.
• Obstacles are a sign that others already sense your success; stay focused and do not be discouraged, even by people close to you.
• Stay away from bribery, corruption, drugs and every kind of addiction.

Answering talk that the event was preparation for the 2029 election, he said he was not there to discuss politics, seek votes or talk about the party.
