Coimbatore: In a historic political turning point, C Joseph Vijay (Thalapathy), leader of the Tamilaga Vetri Kazhagam, was sworn in as Tamil Nadu's 13th Chief Minister on May 10, following his party's landslide victory in the 2026 Assembly elections. The change in administration has triggered a swift transformation across government offices statewide, with new portraits of the Chief Minister being installed.



At the Coimbatore District Collector's office, old photographs have been removed and replaced with portraits of the new Chief Minister Vijay. The installation work is progressing briskly at various locations within the administrative complex.
