While speaking to media after nominations, Madhusudhanan said that he will surely win the election with the blessings of former Tamil Nadu CM J Jayalalithaa and with the iconic ‘Two Leaves’ symbol. He also visited the memorials of party founder M.G. Ramachandran and Annadurai after filing his nomination.

Sidelined deputy general secretary of AIADMK leader T.T.V Dhinakaran also filed his papers as an independent candidate for the RK Nagar by-election. Before he filing his nomination, he met his aunt Sasikala in Bengaluru parappana agrahara prison and discussed about his participation. While filing his nomination, his party members carried a flag with white and red stripes, which looked similar to the flag of AIADMK without the face of Anna.

Vishal – RK Nagar by-election Candidate (Nomination Rejected)

We have seen Actor Vishal taking big steps in Cine industry after becoming the President of Tamil Film Producers Council and General Secretary of the Nadigar Sangam. Also, he has raised his voice for several public issues which made us expect his entry into politics. In the current scenario where all the predominant parties are on the verge of filing the nominations for the RK Nagar by-election, Vishal has made his move boldly. Vishal has confirmed his part in RK Nagar by-election. Even Kamal Hassan has still didn’t announce any clues regarding his political party, Vishal has made his entry independently. So we can see that Vishal has not joined hands with any of the parties as of now and has a created path for himself.

“I thought it was time. I can’t sit and watch anymore. These people did not even conduct civic polls. As a citizen, one does not even know who is supposed to pick up garbage outside the house. That’s the condition now. If change has to come, it can come through anyone. It can even come through Vishal”

RK Nagar election Candidates 2017 – MC Chandrasekhar

The Nephew of Tamil Nadu’s Famed Chief Minister MG Ramachandran has filed his nomination for the RK Nagar by-election as an independent candidate. MC Chandrasekhar who is a son of MG Chakrapani, an elder brother of MGR told,

“Though I am a blood relative of MGR, I am not contesting on that claim. The present situation in the AIADMK has caused much pain to me. Until MGR was alive, he kept all family members away from politics just to avoid any criticism from opposition parties that he is encouraging family politics. Though my father and myself were very much aware of political developments, we remained just spectators because of MGR’s diktat.”
