Mr. Chandhirakumar said that he, along with Minister for Housing and Urban Development S. Muthusamy, had campaigned by walking 140 km across 33 wards within the Corporation limits, directly interacting with voters. “However, we did not observe such sentiments among the voters,” he said, expressing confidence in securing a massive victory.
