Chandra Prabha Jeyapal

Dr. Chandra Prabha Jeyapal is a 56-year-old medical professional working as a Professor of Medicine in Malaysia who entered electoral politics through the Naam Tamilar Katchi (NTK), a Tamil nationalist party in Tamil Nadu. She contested the 2024 Lok Sabha elections from the Ramanathapuram constituency on April 19, 2024, though election results for her performance are not publicly documented. With declared assets of Rs. 52.1 lakhs (predominantly movable assets of Rs. 49.1 lakhs and immovable property worth Rs. 3 lakhs) and zero criminal cases, she represents a clean financial and legal profile. As a medical professional based in Malaysia, her candidacy reflects NTK's strategy of fielding professionals and expatriates to contest elections. The party, led by actor-turned-politician Seeman, is known for its strong Tamil identity politics and opposition to mainstream Dravidian parties. She appears to be contesting the 2026 Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly elections from Mudukulathur constituency (listed as Dr. Chandira Praba, likely a name variation), scheduled for April 23, 2026. In previous elections from this constituency, NTK fielded different candidates—R. Rahmadnisha in 2021 (who secured 11,234 votes or 5.08%) and S. F. Mohamed Gaddaffe in 2016 (1,993 votes or 0.98%). Dr. Jeyapal maintains a notably low public profile with no verified social media presence on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, or YouTube, and minimal documentation of public statements or community engagement activities. Her candidacy appears to rely primarily on the party's organizational strength rather than individual political capital. For voters in Mudukulathur, she represents a choice aligned with Tamil nationalist ideology but lacks an established track record in electoral politics or constituency-level development work. Her professional background in medicine and clean affidavit may appeal to voters seeking educated, scandal-free candidates, though her effectiveness as a public representative remains untested.
