ERODE: DMK has not implemented any major scheme in Erode so far, and is deceiving people and bribing them for votes, AIADMK interim general secretary Edappadi K Palaniswami said on Wednesday. He said, “DMK ministers are doing everything to deceive people. The DMK is buying voters out of fear of defeat.”
He added, “Our candidate KS Thennarasu has served as MLA twice and is well-known to the people.
During the AIADMK regime, Thennarasu brought many schemes for Erode East constituency. It has been 21 months since DMK came to power, but it did not do any work in Erode.”
