TVK’s JCD Prabhakar set to become Tamil Nadu speaker unopposed as Vijay backs seasoned hand
CHENNAI: TVK MLA JCD Prabhakar is set to become the speaker of the Tamil Nadu assembly, as he filed his nomination papers for the post with assembly secretary K Srinivasan on Monday.
The senior leader, a former AIADMK MLA who joined TVK ahead of the polls, is among the senior-most legislators in the ruling combine and played a key organisational role in Vijay’s campaign and manifesto preparation.
His appointment is being seen as an attempt by the Vijay-led government to balance the party’s youthful image with legislative experience.
