>>The News Coordinator, South, clarifies: “In the Poll snippets column (Oct. 20, 2014) relating to the Maharashtra Assembly elections, it was reported, “in a possible first of its kind a Tamil candidate fielded by the BJP won the Maharashtra Assembly election”, and that R. Tamil Selvan “may well be the first Tamil in the Maharashtra Assembly”, because all the past election records could not be accessed immediately after coming to know that Mr. Tamil Selvan was elected late on Sunday evening. Any inadvertent omission of similar instances – for example, Mrs. Kamala Raman who was elected from the Matunga Constituency in 1972 to the Maharashtra Assembly – is regretted.”

Actually, it was Om Parkash Dhankar who was defeated by Mr. Hooda in Rohtak.
