Achievements
• Defeated former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister V. Panneerselvam (AIADMK) in 2021 assembly elections by a margin of 9,222 votes, securing 47.92% vote share in Kalasapakkam constituency
• Successfully transitioned from party worker roles (MDMK Unit Secretary, DMK Doctor wing Deputy Leader) to elected representative status
Public perception is divided. Supporters credit him with defeating former Chief Minister V. Panneerselvam in 2021, demonstrating electoral strength. Critics point to his multiple party switches (MDMK to DMK to BJP and back to DMK within months) and involvement in the controversial footwear-throwing incident, raising questions about political consistency and temperament.
