Chennai: DMK Vellore Lok Sabha constituency candidate Kathir Anand Wednesday urged the Election Commission to reivew its order cancelling election in the seat and hold it as scheduled as he alleged the entire move to stall the poll appeared to be "politically motivated".

Anand, son of DMK treasurer Duraimurugan, in a memorandum sent to the EC said if his plea for holding the polls as scheduled on Thursday was not considered he will be "constrained to initiate appropriate action," by approaching the court and also seek damages against the poll panel.
