Political tension rises in Puducherry as major parties gear up for the assembly elections scheduled on April 9. Parties in both NDA and INDIA blocs are deep in strategic talks to finalize candidates and resolve internal disputes.
The battle for the region's 30 assembly seats is fierce, with the AINRC-BJP alliance, currently in power, having decided their seat allocation: 16 for AINRC and 14 for BJP, which also needs to consider AIADMK's place.
Citing full statehood as his campaign's cornerstone, CM Rangasamy addresses friction within the NDA, particularly regarding the inclusion of Lakshiya Jananayaga Katchi. Discussions intensify amid last-minute strategies, as nomination deadlines approach and nearly 9.44 lakh voters prepare to cast their votes.
