Chief Minister and leader of the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam party.

Vallarasu took the issue to Madras High Court, claiming that the nomination was invalid because the Representation of the People Act only permitted illiterates to file their papers in such a way.[2] The court disagreed with Vallarasu, who had also challenged the manner in which the oath had been sworn by Ramachandran.[3] Ramachandran won the seat, with Vallarasu finishing as runner-up.[1]
