India Today
The ruling DMK maintained its winning streak in the two-phase local body elections in the nine newly created districts in Tamil Nadu. However, the AIADMK has alleged that the DMK unleashed violence during the polls.
The ruling DMK maintained its winning streak in the two-phase local body elections in the nine newly created districts in Tamil Nadu trouncing the AIADMK, which had earlier suffered defeat in the April 6 Assembly election.
DMK president and Chief Minister M K Stalin, who piloted his party to an impressive victory yet again, said the poll results were an endorsement of the DMK's first five months in office, even as the opposition AIADMK alleged that its arch rival had "unleashed unprecedented violence" in the civic polls and won "through backdoor."
