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 promotes government transparency, the development of infrastructure, and multigenerational politics.[5][6] 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 in Malagasy) - IRD for the 2019 Malagasy parliamentary election.
