For Perungudi zone chairman post, KPK Sathishkumar (Ward 182) of ADMK contested against SV Ravichandran of DMK. Soon after the voting completed and when officials set to open ballot box, Sathishkumar objected to counting citing members carried their mobile phones while voting and they would have took pictures of their ballot papers. DMK members opposed the claim saying none of them took photos. After Sathishkumar gave a written complaint, based on which Chennai Corporation Commissioner and District election officer Gagandeep Singh Bedi defered counting.
