After casting his vote in the first phase of Lok Sabha Elections 2024, Tamil Nadu BJP president and Coimbatore candidate K Annamalai alleged that the DMK and AIADMK have spent more than 1000 crores in Coimbatore to influence the voters. The statement from Annamalai has come after casting his vote at a polling booth in Uthupatti, Karur.

While speaking to the media, the BJP Coimbatore candidate challenged the opposition to bring any one person who can say that a BJP person is trying to influence them, he will leave politics that day.

"What DMK, AIADMK is doing in Coimbatore, everybody is watching it. More than 1000 crores have been spent in Coimbatore. If they can bring one voter in front of the media to say that some BJP person is trying to influence them, I will leave politics the same day because I am running in this election as a matter of principle," Annamalai said. 

He also asserted that BJP will cross 25% on its number and the numbers will be in double digits.

Will a high-octane campaign help the BJP?

A high-octane campaign could potentially help the BJP increase its presence in Tamil Nadu, but it's essential to understand the unique political landscape of the state. Tamil Nadu has a strong tradition of Dravidian politics dominated by parties like the DMK and AIADMK, which have deep-rooted support bases.

According to the experts, for the BJP to make significant inroads into Tamil Nadu, it would need to tailor its campaign strategies to resonate with the local populace while also addressing regional issues. This could involve aligning with regional parties or forging alliances with influential local leaders.

Ultimately, while a high-octane campaign could raise the BJP's profile in Tamil Nadu, its success would depend on the party's ability to connect with voters and navigate the complexities of the state's political landscape.
