At least seven people were injured after supporters of the BJP and DMK clashed in Tamil Nadu's Coimbatore over the timing of BJP candidate K Annamalai's election campaign.

The altercation erupted on Thursday night when DMK members questioned Annamalai's campaign extending beyond the permitted 10 pm limit.

A large crowd was involved in the clash, creating chaos. Police quickly reached the spot and managed to contain the situation before it escalated further. One injured person has been admitted to a nearby hospital, and an investigation into the matter has been launched.

K Annamalai, Tamil Nadu BJP state chief, is contesting from the Coimbatore seat, while the DMK has nominated former Coimbatore Mayor Ganapathi Rajkumar as the candidate for the Opposition-led INDIA bloc.
