TIRUCHY: If the Chief Minister’s carefully constructed ‘farmer’ image finds takers among voters, it would make the Delta region easily winnable for the ruling AIADMK. But, if the Opposition’s campaign against the three contentious farm laws and the continuing farmers’ protest at Delhi borders raises concerns among farmers, it would then become a closely-watched battle. While the AIADMK candidates emphasised on the pro-agriculture measures taken by Palaniswami such as Kudimaramathu works, declaration of the Delta region as a Protected Zone, waiver of crop loans, the DMK speakers countered it by listing the ill-effects of farm laws, the support AIADMK MPs extended to it in the Parliament, improper execution of loan waiver, and the threat posed by the Electricity (amendment) Bill to free power supply.
