Four months after quitting the BJP, former IPS officer K Annamalai is taking his We The Leaders campaign into electoral politics. With civic body polls approaching, the platform plans to contest elections, putting its grassroots approach to the test. Annamalai has spoken about training one lakh candidates over three years. His move comes after he praised Chief Minister Vijay’s governance during the first 100 days of the TVK government at the India Today Tamil Nadu Conclave. He has since criticised the government over the dropping of the Parandur airport project. Can We The Leaders turn its campaign into an electoral presence?
