Bhopal, April 20 Chief Minister Mohan Yadav will be on a one-day election tour of Tamil Nadu on April 21. ​

Chief Minister Yadav will campaign in support of his party candidates in the Rasipuram and Avinashi Assembly constituencies of Tamil Nadu.​

Chief Minister Yadav will arrive in the Rasipuram Assembly constituency, Coimbatore, from Bhopal at 1:00 PM. He will hold a meeting in the Rasipuram Assembly constituency. ​

He will campaign in the Avinashi Assembly constituency in support of BJP candidate L Murugan during evening. He is scheduled to address a public rally in support of the BJP candidate SD Premkumar. ​

Rasipuram is considered an important seat where the BJP aims to make significant inroads in the southern state, a party press note said. Later in the day, at 2:00 PM, Chief Minister Yadav will hold a press conference at a Hotel in Avinashi, located in Coimbatore North district. ​

Following the interaction with media, he will campaign vigorously in the Avinashi Assembly constituency at 3:15 PM. ​

He will extend support to senior BJP leader and Union Minister L Murugan, who is contesting from the Avinashi (SC) seat. Murugan, a prominent face of the party in Tamil Nadu, is locked in a high-profile contest against DMK candidate V Gokilamani, a 28-year-old government doctor, making this constituency one of the keenly watched battles in the 2026 elections, the press note said. ​

The Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister’s visit is part of the BJP’s broader strategy to strengthen its presence in Tamil Nadu.​

The party has announced a list of 27 candidates for the Assembly polls and is relying on star campaigners, including chief ministers from BJP-ruled states, to galvanize support for the NDA alliance. ​

Chief Minister Mohan Yadav’s energetic campaigning style, known for connecting with the masses on development and governance issues, is expected to enthuse party workers and voters in the two constituencies. ​
