As the results of the local body polls had signaled the defeat for the ruling ADMK party as the opposition party and its coalition have been gaining the stronghold in the rural bodies of the state which came to the revelation after the vote counting of the two-phased local body polls is nearing the conclusion on Friday, the ADMK party's former Lok Sabha MP and former Minister Anwar Raajhaa has admitted that the party has lost its stronghold in the grounds of minorities after backing the Citizenship Amendment Act that was largely opposed and criticized across the country.

Anwar Raajhaa had encountered direct defeat as his son and daughter who contested in the election had lost with huge margins. Raajhaa's son and daughter contested for the post of Panchayat Union ward members in Mandapam in Ramanathapuram district.

Despite his extensive campaign in the constituencies, both of them are ought to get defeated by their opponents as Raajhaa's daughter was defeated by the DMK candidate with the margin of 1,343 votes while a similar kind of defeat knocked the hope of his son and while DMK and its allied parties have been soaring high in the rural bodies, the defeat of former minister's heirs had caused volatile developments within the ADMK party that has been coming through back to back setbacks.

After getting defeated in the local body polls which the party had thought of sweeping the victories as it might be the last elections before the state legislative polls that will take place in 2021, Anwar Raajhaa was speaking to the televised interview over the phone during which, while responding about the loss, he stated that the ADMK party had trailed in the polls after backing and voting in favor for the Citizenship Amendment Bill in the Upper house of the Parliament and added that the party's support for the bill had strongly led for a drastic decline among the minorities and it was reflected in the election and for the allied parties and by admitting the loss, Raajhaa expressed that he hopes that ADMK party would reconsider its support over the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) that has been largely criticized by the minorities. 

Since the counting had begun on Thursday, the opposition party DMK and its allied parties have been leading in the constituencies that once dominated by the ADMK party across the state and despite the ADMK can solace itself from the victory in the Kongu belt districts, the rest of the districts that went for polling had tuned the twist by presenting the huge defeat for the ruling party.
