Aiming to bag all 40 MP seats in Tamil Nadu, Puducherry, master strategist MK Stalin-led ruling party has started its election work from poll booths since its strength there would help in both the Parliamentary and Assembly elections.

As a spadework, the ruling Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) in Tamil Nadu on Wednesday announced a series of appointments, including retaining party president and Chief Minister MK Stalin’s son Udhayandhi as its Youth Wing Secretary and replaced Kanimozhi with Helen Davidson in the women’s wing.

Kanimozhi was last month named as the party’s deputy general secretary.

Davidson replaces the Lok Sabha MP as the DMK’s Women’s Wing Secretary, according to an announcement from the party’s general secretary and state Minister Duraimurugan.

Udhayanidhi is Legislator from the city’s Chepauk-Thiruvallikeni Assembly segment.

Duraimurugan announced the appointment of nine deputy secretaries to the youth wing.

The party also announced appointing members to different posts in the women’s wing.
