Election Commission of India (ECI) is contemplating the postponement of RK Nagar by-election as the role of Cash in the election became very intense. Income Tax Department had raided residences, offices and others belonging to Health Minister of the state.
It is said that details of 89 Crore distributed in the constituency were found and it has prompted ECI to consider the postponement. A final decision over this may be taken on Monday. But then, such a decision may favour TTV Dinakaran of Sasikala faction.
Dinakaran will bring out an argument that O Paneerselvam has joined hands with the Central government to postpone the election just because he is going to win the election. This will shift the public perception in Dinakaran’s favour, Sasikala‘s faction opines.
