Former Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin criticized the ruling TVK government, led by C Joseph Vijay, for losing 151 super-specialty medical seats to the All India quota. Stalin linked the issue to past DMK efforts securing OBC reservations in medical admissions and accused the government of legal negligence during Supreme Court proceedings. 

He highlighted the impact on future government doctors and public healthcare, questioned the handling of counseling processes, and called for transparency on the state's review petition and political response to the controversy.
