DMK wins Vikravandi by-poll, CM calls it people's thanksgiving

While Chief Minister MK Stalin called the victory as people's thanksgiving for the DMK regime's welfare schemes, opposition PMK called it a temporary win bought through money power and gifts.

The DMK candidate, Anniyur Siva, polled 1,24,053 votes trumping PMK's C Anbumani, who contested as part of the National Democratic Alliance and got 56,296 votes. NTK candidate K Abinaya came a distant third with 10,602 votes. AIADMK, the principal opposition party, had boycotted the by-election.
