Make RK Nagar set new precedent for probity in polls

After the core committee meets, executive committee would meet on Tuesday and the exercise would be wrapped up with the general council meeting.

Chennai: The BJP on Monday has urged the election commission to strive hard and ensure the bey-election to the R. K. Nagar Assembly constituency set a new precedent for probity in polls in TN.

Arguing that the by-polls should herald the end of "Thirumangalam formula" of bribing the voters, BJP state president Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan said “if Thirumangalam had become notorious for bribing the voters, R. K. Nagar should become a role model for probity in elections. The election commission should work in this direction,” Dr. Tamilisai urged.

She informed that the BJP’s general council will meet in Karur to decide on contesting the R. K. Nagar Assembly by-poll, local bodies elections and political developments. After the core committee meets, executive committee would meet on Tuesday and the exercise would be wrapped up with the general council meeting.
