Local perspectives on Annamalai's loss vary; while some cited multiple factors, one local highlighted concerns about his conduct and leadership capabilities. This sentiment underscores broader criticisms within the constituency regarding Annamalai's suitability for leadership, reflecting challenges faced by BJP in gaining traction despite their concerted efforts in the region.

Annamalai's retort underscores the political landscape's nuances in Tamil Nadu, where familial legacies often dominate. His statement not only defends his party's electoral record but also asserts his individual merit and independence from established political dynasties, adding depth to the ongoing political discourse in the region.
