Many long-standing demands of voters remain unaddressed
The voters of the Dharapuram (Reserved) Assembly constituency in Tiruppur district are set to witness a contest between the State president of the BJP and a first-time candidate from the DMK front in next month’s Assembly election.
BJP Tamil Nadu president L. Murugan is the candidate of the AIADMK front for the Dharapuram constituency which, incidentally, is the only reserved constituency in the Kongu region to have been allocated by the AIADMK to the BJP. He became the party’s State unit president in March 2020, and unsuccessfully contested the Assembly election in 2011 (from Rasipuram) and 2006 (from Sankari) as a member of the BJP.
