Trouble started when the convoy tried to campaign in Periapattinam as some people from a particular community objected.

Stones were pelted on the convoy and posters on the campaign vehicle were torn. Protesting the attack, Durai Kannan along with his party workers staged a road roko but withdrew it after senior police officials negotiated with them assuring action.

Based on the complaint, Thirupullani police arrested K Nawas Khan from Periapattinam and booked him and few others involved.
