Chennai, May 3 : The BJP scripted success in the 2021 Assembly elections of Tamil Nadu winning 4 seats out of the 20 it had contested. However, the party's vote share was only 2.6 per cent.
BJP women's wing national president Vanathi Srinivasan emerged a giant killer by defeating South Indian superstar and President of Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM) by a margin of 1,540 votes at Coimbatore South seat.
Vanathi had been continuously working at the grassroots in the constituency after losing the seat in 2016 garnering 33,113 votes. However in the 2016 elections, the BJP had contested alone while in 2021 it was in alliance with the AIADMK.
