Is Tamil medium advantageous in TNPSC compared to English medium?

I have heard conflicting views on whether Tamil medium or English medium scores better in TNPSC Group 1 Mains. Is there actually a difference in how papers are evaluated? Should I switch my medium based on which language I think better in?

There is no evaluation bias between Tamil and English medium — papers are bilingual and marked on content. Choose the medium you read and write faster in. Since Samacheer books are originally in Tamil, Tamil-medium students sometimes find the static portion slightly easier, but that is a comfort factor, not a scoring bias.
