What Happened
Central Tamil Nadu's 41 Assembly constituencies recorded impressive voter turnout Thursday following electoral roll revision and new party launch. Two incidents—an attack on a woman candidate in Papanasam and a policeman stabbing in Poompuhar—caused tension. Polling remained largely peaceful across nine districts including Tiruchi and Thanjavur.
