CHENNAI: The constitutional right for individuals to contest in elections is empowering. However, in many cases, independent candidates are caught between exercising that right and being used as pawns by big political parties to engineer vote splits.
In 2016, out of the 134 seats won by AIADMK, victory margins in 32 seats for the party were less than three per cent, and it was less than five per cent in 50 seats.
In many of these constituencies, a few independent candidates who are namesakes have engineered vote split by confusing voters and have altogether polled more votes than the losing margin of runners-up.
