T.N. Assembly election: Naam Tamilar Katchi announces candidates; Seeman to contest from Karaikudi

Naam Tamilar Katchi (NTK) chief coordinator Seeman announced the party's 234 candidate list for the upcoming 2026 Assembly election. He stated that there was no fundamental difference between national and regional parties, claiming they all pursued "anti-people policies." Seeman also criticized what he termed "freebie politics" of the DMK and AIADMK, alleging similar policies on issues like Tasmac operations and environmental management. He asserted that the NTK sought a broader societal transformation free from corruption, caste discrimination, and environmental exploitation.
