For the people of Tamil Nadu, today's results will decide who will rule the State as well as the country. By-elections were held in 22 Assembly constituencies along with 38 out of 39 parliamentary constituencies in the State.
The Election Commission cancelled the polling for Vellore Lok Sabha seat after clinching evidence of cash-for-votes prevalent in the constituency.
While the key contest is between the two dravidian majors — the AIADMK and the DMK who have allied with the BJP and Congress respectively, the TTV Dhinakaran-led AMMK and actor Kamal Haasan’s MNM are also the new entrants to look out for.
