While most contestants for the assembly election have adopted traditional methods such as roadside meetings and other forms of public campaign to garner votes, some have chosen to walk the extra mile to entice voters. DMK candidate V. of Karur constituency. Senthil Balaji, who is facing stiff competition from Transport Minister MR Vijayabaskar, is seeking votes by touching the feet of voters.
After performing puja at the Muthalamman temple at Kodangipatti near Karur, he started his campaign on Saturday by touching the feet of every voter in Kodangipatti, Perumalpatti, Othaiyur and Paraiyur. Although, some were not comfortable with the method, Mr. Balaji did not object and went on with his plan.
