PUDUCHEERY, May 4 : Chief Minister and AINRC leader N Rangasamy on Monday won from Thattanchavady and Mangalam, the two seats from where he contested the April 9 Assembly elections in this union territory.
While the CM trounced Neyam Makkal Kazhagam rival E Vinayagam by 4441 votes in Thattanchavady, his pocket borough seat, Rangasamy emerged victorious in Managalam too, defeating DMK’s SS Rangan by 7050 votes.
This is not the first time that Rangasamy has sought to contest from two seats.
He contested in Yanam and Thattanchavady in the 2021 Assembly polls. He however was trounced in Yanam and was successful in Thattanchavady.
He may have to now vacate one of the seats. (PTI)
