Senior leaders, including former Ministers K N Nehru, M R K Panneerselvam, K Ponmudi and E V Velu -- all local party heavyweights, have been named as Election in-Charge and they will coordinate with the high command 'directly and through reports,' a DMK press release here said.
Their tasks include consulting party's Booth Level Agents (BLA) and taking up various people's issues through protests and demonstrations in the respective constituencies, it said.
Senior office-bearers, including key District Secretaries and others were advised to coordinate with the new appointees, it said.
Preparing for a must-win elections next year, DMK has gone on a pre-poll mode, with Party Treasurer and former Deputy Chief Minister M K Stalin going on a phased tour of the state titled 'Namakku Name' (Self-reliance) in a bid to woo the voters.
While AIADMK won 37 of the 39 seats it contested in the state, the Stalin-led DMK returned no MPs.
