Jaya urges EC, police to ensure incident-free election
she said her party candidate for Madathukulam constituency C Shanmugavelu and some others had sustained serious injuries when they were "attacked" by DMK men after AIADMK workers objected to their "distributing money" to voters.
"Further, DMDK functionary Asokan was killed by DMK men at Pennagaram," she said in a statement here.
"I request the EC, state Chief Electoral Officer and DGP to depute more number of central paramilitary forces to all parts of the state and ensure there are no untoward incidents. Voters must cast their votes without fear and the EC and others should ensure this," she said.
