Mohamed Meera. A

Mohamed Meera, 56, is an independent candidate contesting from the Chepauk-Thiruvallikeni constituency in Tamil Nadu. A pharmacist by profession, he has declared total assets of Rs. 2 lakhs with no immovable property. His political journey has been marked by extremely limited electoral success and virtually no public visibility. His only documented electoral attempt was in 2006 when he contested the Chepauk Assembly constituency as an independent candidate. He finished 7th in that election with merely 349 votes, capturing just 0.52% of the total vote share. The seat was won by DMK stalwart M. Karunanidhi with over 34,000 votes. This massive gap indicates Meera had minimal grassroots connect or campaign infrastructure. There is no publicly available information about any development work, community service, or political activities undertaken by Mohamed Meera over the past two decades. He has not contested subsequent elections in 2011, 2016, or 2021. No controversies, criminal cases, or corruption allegations have been found against him. However, the absence of any documented political engagement or public service record is notable. Voters should be aware that Mohamed Meera is contesting from a constituency that has become a DMK stronghold, currently represented by Deputy Chief Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin. With no visible campaign presence, organizational structure, or track record of constituency work, his candidacy appears to have minimal electoral prospects. His declared assets of just Rs. 2 lakhs and absence of any property ownership raise questions about his financial capability to mount an effective campaign in this urban Chennai constituency.
