Police have reached the spot and initiated an investigation.
Last year, Dhinakaran parted ways with the ruling AIADMK to form his own party and contest RK Nagar by-election. RK Nagar Assembly constituency fell vacant after the death of former Tamil Nadu chief minister J Jayalalithaa.
Sidelined Dhinakaran won the much-sought-after constituency, taking a virtually unassailable lead of over 40,000 votes against his AIADMK rival E Madhusudhanan.
