K.N. Sekar

K.N. Sekar is a 55-year-old politician representing the Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK) in Tamil Nadu's Ambattur constituency. Despite having only an 8th grade education, he has built a career in the civil construction industry and accumulated substantial assets worth over ₹22 crores. His political career with PMK includes contesting the 2016 Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly election from Ambattur, where he secured 16,635 votes (7.24% vote share) but lost to AIADMK's V. Alexander who won with 94,375 votes. PMK has announced him as their candidate for Ambattur again for the 2026 elections, indicating continued party confidence despite his previous electoral loss. The Ambattur constituency, formed after 2008 delimitation, covers parts of Chennai Corporation and has been a challenging seat for PMK, with DMK winning it in 2021. Voters should note his significant business success in construction but limited electoral track record and minimal public profile outside party announcements.
