Makkal Needhi Maiam state secretary Senthil Arumugam on Saturday alleged that a key office bearer of the DMK threatened a MNM candidate to withdraw his nomination for Ward 9 of Panamarathupatti in Salem district.
In a statement, he claimed the candidate, an autorickshaw driver belonging to the Scheduled Caste, is scared that he will continue to receive threats if he filed a police complaint.
“This is blatant anti-democratic behaviour. One wonder if there is rule of law in Tamil Nadu. There have been several reports that the positions are being auctioned and candidates are being threatened,” he said.

The High Court of Karnataka on Tuesday ordered the issue of a notice to the State government on a PIL petition, which had complained about disturbances caused to people residing in the localities around the National Public School situated in Rajajinagar 5th block due to use of loudspeakers with high volume in the school and parking of school buses in residential areas.
