‘Vijay may campaign in Trichy again’

Trichy: TVK president and actor Vijay may return to Trichy for a second round of campaigning, said the party's central region in-charge Ku Pa Krishnan.

Talking to reporters at the party's office near Gandhi Market on Monday, Krishnan said the TVK chief is expected to engage with voters in the district once again.




On the seizure of cash from his relative's house, Krishnan, who is also TVK's Lalgudi candidate, raised questions about legality of authorities entering private residences and seizing cash without due procedures. "Any search of a private residence must be carried out only after issuing a formal summons," he said.

On Vijay filing an additional affidavit for his nomination papers, he said, "There are no irregularities in the nomination papers he filed." He also dismissed criticism over Vijay contesting from two constituencies, drawing parallels with leaders such as Indira Gandhi and J Jayalalithaa who had done the same.

Krishnan said TVK is receiving strong public support. "There is a wave in our favour, and our victory is assured," he said.
