Besides promising to fulfil basic requirements of his constituency, Mayura stressed on the importance of education and highlighted that the Government College in the city itself lacked proper infrastructure and departments.

Pointing out the unused railway tracks between Pollachi and Coimbatore, Mayura Jayakumar assured that the tracks will be used to aid in decreasing traffic congestion.
When Mayura Jayakumar promised to build a business development centre for jewellery makers and weavers at the Somasundaram Mill which had been left unused for years, he was interrupted by the AMMK MLA candidate Durai who said that it would not be possible to do that. "I am talking about my plans," retorted Jayakumar.
Citing that Coimbatore had become a place for religious riots, Mayura Jayakumar assured that everybody wanted peace and harmony and hence he would set up a committee to ensure just that, both in his constituency as well as across Coimbatore.
