The Tamil Nadu BJP Chief and BJP candidate from Coimbatore, K Annamalai, hit the campaign trail today by holding a massive roadshow to make preparations for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. The roadshow started in Teppakulam Maidanam in Madurai at around 11 am with Mr Annamalai standing on an open-roofed vehicle.
Annamalai is contesting from the Coimbatore Lok Sabha constituency in the general elections.
Earlier, he slammed the ruling DMK and its chief, MK Stalin, saying that they are the enemies of Tamil Nadu and the people of the state.
“MK Stalin and DMK are the enemies of Tamil Nadu and the people of the state. Today, it is only the BJP that is in the field and campaigning for the election,” he said.
“June 4 will attest to the fact that Tamil Nadu will come Modiji’s way, that is, in a very big way,” said Annamalai earlier.
On March 28, Annamalai filed his nomination from the Coimbatore parliamentary constituency.
A Karnataka cadre IPS officer, Annamalai, resigned from service in 2019 and joined the BJP in 2020. He was appointed BJP state president a year late.
All 39 seats of Tamil Nadu will poll in the first phase of the general elections on April 19 and the counting of votes, along with those from other phases, has been scheduled for June 4.
