AIADMK supremo and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa on Thursday announced V.N.P. Venkatraman as the party’s candidate for the April 24 by-poll to Alandur constituency.
The by-poll was necessitated following the resignation of DMDK MLA Panrutty S. Ramachandran, who had quit the Vijayakant-led party before joining AIADMK recently.
The Election Commission had announced on Wednesday that the by-poll would be held to the Alandur constituency along with the Lok Sabha polls in Tamil Nadu on April 24.
