Crime against women in Gujarat between 2001-2012 went up by 65 percent, while in Tamil Nadu it went down by 29 percent, she said.

Jayalalithaa said that in rural and urban Gujarat the average amount spent by a person was Rs.1,430 and Rs.2,472 respectively, while in Tamil Nadu the figures were Rs.1,571 and Rs.2,534.

The crowd cheered when she asked: "Who is the best administrator? Is it Gujarat's Modi or Tamil Nadu's Lady?"

BJP leaders here have been asking whether the factories in Tamil Nadu were functioning to their full capacity due to the severe power shortage in the state.

Modi, while campaigning in the state April 13, charged the AIADMK and the DMK of taking people for granted.

The BJP leader also made fun of the power shortage in Tamil Nadu, saying a 12-year-old boy from Gujarat would not understand why there is power cut when he comes to Tamil Nadu. He added there was no such outage in Gujarat.
