“It has become clear that the people of Tamil Nadu have boycotted [AIADMK general secretary] Edappadi K. Palaniswami, as they have left the race against the DMK, which has been using authority only for personal gains”, Mr. Dhinakaran contended in a statement.
The AMMK leader called upon his partymen to “teach a lesson” to the DMK, which has been synonymous for atrocities and to Mr. Palaniswami who has decided to boycott the Vikravandi bypoll. He appealed to his supporters to help PMK candidate C. Anbumani win the bypoll.
