AIADMK objects to ‘high-handed’ manner of election officials

Sunday, 26 September 2021 | PTI | Chennai

The Opposition AIADMK in Tamil Nadu on Saturday objected to the "high-handed" manner of election officials concerned and questioned the rejection of nomination papers of the party candidates for the civic polls in Kallakurichi district, while urging the State Election Commission (SEC) to take immediate "remedial steps."

Kallakurichi is among the nine districts in the state where rural local body polls are slated on October 6 and 9. R M babu Murugavel, AIADMK Advocates Wing Joint Secretary, told the SEC that his party was "shocked in the manner in which the Returning Officers and the scrutinising officers are behaving in a high-handed manner." In Kallakurichi, the nomination papers of four candidates have been rejected without any preliminary enquiry, he told the SEC  in a letter.
