Visitors at the venue of CPI(M) 24th party congress were given a chance to click selfie with the life-size figure of Karl Marx, the author of Das Kapital. Madurai MP Su. Venkatesan and other senior leaders also clicked selfies and pictures there.

While the people of Tamil Nadu are used to witnessing ministers amid long convoys flanked by police personnel and party cadre, people at Tamukkam were amused to witness a senior minister from Kerala holding an important portfolio getting introduced to people in a casual manner.

The cadre and volunteers descended on the venue from far and near. People from not just Tamil Nadu, but from all the southern States - Kerala, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana - and even States as far away as West Bengal and Delhi have arrived in Madurai in large numbers.
