TIRUNELVELI
The brief but intense electioneering for the Assembly polls came to an end on Sunday evening as the electorate will cast their votes to elect the new Assembly on Tuesday (April 6). Though the electioneering was so animated with the visit of the political leaders, no untoward incident was reported so far in any part of Tirunelveli, Tenkasi, Thoothukudi and Kanniyakumari districts. The tone for the electioneering was set by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, who started his 3-day roadshow in all these four districts from Thoothukudi on February 27. Besides addressing the voters from his campaign vehicle, the young leader met the advocates, saltpan workers, academicians, beedi workers and self-help group members, small and marginal businessmen and the students. The leaders’ casual approach with the participants of these meetings did have indelible impact on them.

An assessment by the district unit of the Suchitwa Mission found that the use of PVC flex boards, banners, flags made of plastics and non-biodegradable materials for electioneering has declined considerably. Only a handful of violations were detected in the district since the campaign started, according to P.H. Shine, district co-ordinator of Suchitwa Mission.
