NDTV
A Prime Minister visiting Tamil Nadu 9 times before a Lok Sabha election is undoubtedly a first in the state's history. It demonstrated the BJP's resolve to break the electoral jinx it faces in the state.
Tamil Nadu is all set to vote on April 19 for the Lok Sabha polls, that was marked by fierce campaigns and acrimonious debates, and a never seen before kind of spirited fight put up by the BJP, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to gain a foothold in the Dravidian part of India in 2024 was a striking feature.
Elections to 39 Lok Sabha seats in the state will be held tomorrow and the fate of 950 candidates will be decided by about 6.23 crore voters who are set to exercise their franchise in nearly 68,000 polling stations.
The election mood set in pretty early in the state, in January, with the commencement of repeated visits by PM Modi who combined development and honour for Tamil language and culture as his main election plank that also had the key element of denouncing DMK-Congress over alleged corruption and 'parivarvad' politics. The state witnessed intense campaigning for nearly a month starting from March.
