The campaign of the veteran leader, who cut his teeth in the Congress party before launching his own party the AINRC in 2011, offers interesting spectacles.
Highlighting welfare initiatives, Rangasamy promised to enhance educational assistance for students from the fishing community on a par with those from Scheduled Castes.
He does not own any agricultural land nor any commercial buildings on his name and does not have any criminal proceedings against him, the affidavit said.
AINRC was allotted 16 of the 30 assembly seats while the BJP’s share of 14 seats would be further distributed among its allies - DMK and newly-formed LJK.
