In a shocking incident caught on camera during the Tamil Nadu Assembly Election 2026, a DMK functionary was seen aggressively lunging towards BJP’s Mylapore constituency candidate Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan in what appeared to be a clear physical attack attempt on polling day.
What the Video Shows
The video captures a heated altercation in which a man, a DMK party functionary, is seen pointing fingers aggressively and shouting at people near Dr. Tamilisai’s entourage.
BJP members and supporters asked him to remove the DMK symbol he was flashing.
He quickly countered the BJP members and the confrontation quickly spiralled, with the functionary lunging aggressively toward people in the area.

Notably, Mylapore has been a flashpoint throughout this election cycle. Just a day before polling, the Election Commission seized ₹2 crore in cash from the residence of a personal aide of the DMK’s Mylapore candidate Dha. Velu – money alleged to be meant for voter bribery.
