The contest between the two major Dravidian parties in the urban local body polls was a fight between two forms of corruption, Makkal Needhi Maiam president Kamal Haasan said here on Wednesday.
Speaking to reporters, he said the DMK that had, as an opposition party, opposed the 24x7 drinking water project in city, had now expedited the implementation.
In the past nine months, the DMK had not fulfilled its electoral promises. After promising ₹ 1,000 to all homemakers, which in itself was a copy- paste job from the Makkal Needhi Maiam manifesto, had now started issuing applications.

Former CM B.S. Yediyurappa had challenged the first information report registered on March 14, 2024, on the alleged incident that occurred on February 2, 2024, the chargesheet filed by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), and the February 28, 2025, order of taking cognisance of offences afresh by the trial court.
