Close contest between AIADMK and DMK in TN rural body polls
It is a close contest between the ruling AIADMK and the principal opposition party DMK in the two phased rural local body elections held on December 27 and 30 last year.
The lead trends are alternating between these two parties since Thursday morning when the counting of votes got underway.
The trends show that AIADMK has been able to retain its support base in the rural areas despite the major drubbing it suffered in the hands of DMK in the Lok Sabha polls.
