The Hindu
Those in fray for the elections switched the mode of campaign to individual household visits and speaking to influential persons in their respective constituencies over phone
After open public campaigning by political parties and their candidates came to an end on Sunday evening for the April 6 Assembly polls, those in fray for the elections switched the mode of campaign to individual household visits and speaking to influential persons in their respective constituencies over phone. Candidates and top leaders of main political parties told The Hindu that since the public campaign came to an end on Sunday evening, they have been talking to important people in their constituencies. "Our leader (N. Rangasamy) was confined at home and nearby locations talking to people over phone based on feedback from party workers. He personally called up people who could influence voters in the locality seeking support. We used the last 24 hours to make up the lost ground or in places where support to our candidates was much less," said a AINRC candidate.More Related News
