DMDK treasurer Premalatha Vijayakanth Sunday said the two women candidates contesting the Lok Sabha elections from Tuticorin were 'good and hard-working' and that she strongly supported women's participation in politics.
Tamil Nadu BJP president Tamilisai Soundararajan and DMK leader and Rajya Sabha MP M Kanimozhi would be locking horns for the seat in the elections scheduled April 18.
Addressing reporters, Premalatha said, "It is a healthy thing. I am always a supporter of women's participation in politics. They (Kanimozhi and Soundararajan) are good candidates capable of hard work and are familiar."
