Vijay’s TVK Stages Statewide Protests in Tamil Nadu Over Electoral Roll Revision

Overview

• TVK held coordinated rallies across district headquarters at 11 a.m. after obtaining police permissions for the demonstrations.
• In Chennai, general secretary Anand led the protest, while senior leaders oversaw parallel events in cities including Madurai and Coimbatore.
• The party alleges the Special Intensive Revision has been poorly communicated and could wrongly drop eligible voters, citing BLO conduct and draft-roll errors.
