Who Got What In CM Vijay’s New Tamil Nadu Cabinet? Check Full Portfolio List

The Tamil Nadu Raj Bhavan on Saturday announced the portfolio allocation for the newly formed Cabinet led by Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay, days after the actor-turned-politician took oath following his party’s historic victory in the 2026 Assembly elections.

According to the official notification, portfolios were distributed among 10 ministers, including Vijay, who retained several key departments such as Home, Police and Public Administration. The allocation marks a major administrative step for the new Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) government, which ended decades of alternating rule by the DMK and AIADMK in the state.

Vijay was sworn in as Chief Minister earlier this month after TVK emerged as the single-largest party and secured the backing of alliance partners to form the government. The Cabinet includes a mix of senior leaders and first-time legislators overseeing departments ranging from education and energy to municipal administration and social welfare.
