Ruling and Oppn party joined hands to defeat me :Kannan

Puducherry, May 24 (UNI) AIADMK election wing Secretary and party’s unsuccessful candidate for Rajbhavan constituency P Kannan today charged that the ruling and Opposition parties had joined hands with a secret agenda to defeat him.
Addressing a press conference here today, Mr.Kannan further explained that he had opposed Chief Minister N Rangasamy without any compromise and wanted to remove him from power. He was opposed to the style of functioning of Mr Rangasamy and had no personal animosity, he clarified. All those against him joined hands in this election with the single point agenda to defeat and get rid of him(Kannan) and they succeeded in it. While his Congress opponent K Lakshminarayanan distributed money and materials to woo the voters, the AINRC candidate Anibal Nehru at the last moment advised the voters not to vote for him and to vote for the “Hand”, the symbol of the Congress.
Mr.Kannan said he is yet to recover from the “shock” of the AIADMK's defeat here and added that he will not just say that a self-introspection, but a mega-surgery is needed to find out what went wrong and set things right. On his future plans, Mr.Kannan said that he is awaiting advice from “Amma”(Jayalithaa) and added that he will continue as an AIADMK man.
There is no row at position 0.
