The DMK was headed towards winning a majority in all four Corporations and most of the 23 municipalities and 71 town panchayats in the nine districts of the Central region as of Tuesday afternoon.
The DMK-led alliance is all set to wrest control of the Tiruchi and Thanjavur Corporations, both held by the AIADMK previously, and was on course to gaining a majority in the two new Corporations of Karur and Kumbakonam too.
