Tirunelveli, April 8 (SocialNews.XYZ) Actor-turned-politician Vijay will campaign in Tirunelveli on Wednesday, addressing a major public meeting at KTC Nagar as part of his outreach for the Tamil Nadu Assembly elections.
The rally, organised in support of Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) candidates contesting in Tirunelveli and Tenkasi districts, has received police clearance with conditions, primarily focusing on crowd control and security arrangements.
Party coordinator Sengottaiyan said all guidelines would be strictly followed, even as he questioned the imposition of stringent norms exclusively on the TVK-related events.
Following the public meeting, Vijay is scheduled to embark on a roadshow covering Thalayuthu, Thachanallur, Washermanpet, Samadhanapuram and the court complex area before returning to KTC Nagar.
The party is also awaiting permissions to extend its campaign to Pudukkottai, Tenkasi, Mayiladuthurai and Ranipet districts, where applications have already been submitted online.
The campaign push comes against the backdrop of a series of nomination-related developments involving Vijay and his party candidates across the state.
Vijay, who is contesting from both Perambur in Chennai and Tiruchy East, had his nomination accepted without issue in Tiruchy East. However, in Perambur, his papers briefly faced scrutiny after PMK candidate Thilagabama objected, alleging non-payment of property tax on assets in his name.
The Returning Officer temporarily withheld acceptance, leading to tense scenes, before clearing the nomination after explanations were submitted by TVK representatives.
In Villivakkam, the nomination of TVK executive Adhav Arjuna was also temporarily put on hold following objections over incomplete disclosure of companies registered under his wife’s name. The issue was later resolved after additional details were furnished.
A more serious controversy emerged in Edappadi, where AIADMK leader Edappadi K. Palaniswami is in the fray. The nomination of TVK candidate Arun Kumar was rejected, and he subsequently went missing, sparking a political row. The nomination of his substitute candidate and wife, Nithya, was also rejected.
Meanwhile, in Chidambaram, both the primary nomination of candidate Pari and that of his substitute, his father Nedunchezhiyan, were accepted without objections, offering a contrast to the disruptions seen elsewhere.
