Chennai: Comments by Tamil Nadu Minister for Public Works and Sports Development Adhav Arjuna has all but confirmed that AIADMK will not be given place in TVK's cabinet, amid objections from the VCK and the Left parties.

Arjuna on Wednesday explained that the AIADMK rebel group led by C Ve Shanmugam supported the TVK during the floor test with the aim of "saving" their party and not for ministerial berths.

He extended an invitation to VCK and IUML to join the TVK government's cabinet. He alleged that the DMK and AIADMK have tried to prevent the TVK party from forming a government by aligning with each other to come to power.

Stating that the Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay wants the cabinet to function as "one family", Arjuna hinted that the chief minister is also interested in having left parties in his cabinet.
