Sexual abuse case continues to haunt it in Pollachi
The ruling AIADMK will have to sweat it out if it wants to retain its winning streak in the Pollachi Assembly constituency. The Pollachi sexual assault case continues to haunt the prospects of the AIADMK in the battle of ballots. To continue its winning streak, the party will have to work very hard as the DMK campaign focuses on the anti-incumbency factor and the slow pace of development. In addition to this, the AIADMK is struggling to defend its image, tarnished by the involvement of its functionaries in the sexual abuse case. In fact, Pollachi V. Jayaraman, the incumbent MLA and Deputy Speaker in the Assembly, keeps re-iterating that it was he who ensured that action was initiated in the case.More Related News
