AMMK leader Thanga Tamilselvan had 'suspicion' about officials deployed for poll work
As per agents were not allowed beyond 10 pm and the restriction should be eased to avoid escalation of suspicion, Tamilselvan, a key aide of Dhinakaran, told reporters. He said "If the counting happens in a day or two, it would not be a problem, but it is a month-long wait (for May 23). We are okay with efforts taken by the EC, but its implementation lies with officials of state government".
Moreover he also questioned the need for the official to visit the storage room. Apparently Tamilnadu Chief Electoral officer Satyabrata SahooSunday ordered the suspension of the tahsildar after an inquiry based on a complaint by CPI-M candidate in Madurai constituency. According to poll Officials "Three-tier security system has been provided to the strong rooms, which are being monitored using CCTV cameras round the clock".
