Amman K. Arjunan, the AIADMK candidate for Coimbatore South in Tamil Nadu, India, has raised serious allegations against his opponent, V. Senthilbalaji of the DMK party, claiming that he is distributing cash to influence voters. Arjunan protested at the Collectorate on April 22, 2026, and submitted petitions to Coimbatore district Collector Pavankumar G. Giriyappanavar and City Police Commissioner N. Kannan, stating that around 2,000 individuals from Karur are present in Coimbatore and are involved in these alleged irregularities. He expressed frustration over the lack of action from the police and election officials, arguing that voters in Coimbatore South are being intimidated and are fearful of casting their votes. He noted that nearly 40% of neutral voters in the constituency are unwilling to participate in the election, which he described as a significant threat to democracy. Arjunan's claims highlight ongoing concerns regarding electoral integrity in the region.
