On a winning streak: Ruling DMK retains Vikravandi seat

New Indian Express  

CHENNAI: The ruling DMK on Saturday emerged victorious in the bypoll to the Vikravandi Assembly constituency by defeating his nearest rival C Anbumani of the Paatali Makkal Katchi by a margin of 67,757 votes. With ADMK and DMDK boycotting the bypoll, the fight was largely between DMK's Anniyur Siva and Anbumani. By retaining the Vikravandi seat, the ruling DMK has continued to maintain its winning streak in the state since the 2019 Lok Sabha election. PMK founder S Ramadoss stated that the 'real victory' is for his party and the DMK's victory is 'temporary' as it flexed its money power and 'unleashed cash and gifts.'
