In Madurai South, the fight is between a staunch Vaiko loyalist and a BJP karyakarta

While Sumathi of the NTK and J. Jo Peter of the TVK are also in the fray, working hard to make a mark, the real fight appears to be between Pudur M. Boominathan and Professor Sreenivasan, who is supported by the AIADMK, AMMK, the PMK, John Pandians outfit and other parties
