Tamil Nadu Lok Sabha Polls: For the former chief minister, the upcoming general elections represent a do-or-die battle, as he cannot afford to lose votes to the other Panneerselvams if he intends to maintain his political relevance in the state.
Former CM O Panneerselvam, 74, contests LS polls against a 42-year old from Usilampatti taluk in Madurai. Aligned with BJP, he battles a young namesake, Ochappan Panneerselvam .
