The term TGV is also a reference to Andry Rajoelina's nickname, a reference to the French high-speed train TGV and to Rajoelina's fast-mover's personality.
Politically, TGV states that it promotes government transparency, the development of infrastructure, and multigenerational politics.[4] It is the main centre-left rival of the centre-right Tiako I Madagasikara, and currently holds a majority in the National Assembly.
It was part of the coalition Together with President Andry Rajoelina (Isika Rehetra Miaraka amin’i Andry Rajoelina, or IRD) for the 2019 Malagasy parliamentary election. In the 2023 Malagasy presidential election and 2024 Malagasy parliamentary election he used to call it 'IRMAR' (Isika Rehetra Miaraka Amin’i Andry Rajoelina).[5]
