Tiruppur: Kamal Haasan, President of Makkal Needhi Maiam, campaigned in support of DMK candidate Dr. Gokila Mani in Avinashi constituency and described her as an icon of the Dravidian model government and social justice.

Addressing the public, he said Dr. Gokila Mani hailed from an economically underprivileged family and had achieved success in life through determination and hard work.
