Chennai North Lok Sabha 2024 Results Live


The North Chennai Lok Sabha constituency, which includes Thiruvottiyur, Dr. Radhakrishnan Nagar, Perambur, Kolathur, Thiru Vi Ka Nagar, and Royapuram, is a highly populous and industrialized area.


Kolathur is notable because M K Stalin, the chief minister of Tamil Nadu, and the president of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) represent it in the state Assembly.


Background Details Of The Seats


The Chennai South Lok Sabha seat is located in Tamil Nadu and consists of six assembly segments: Velachery, Sholinganallur, Mylapore, Saidapet, T Nagar, and Virugambakkam. It also includes portions of the districts of Chennai and Kancheepuram. It is one of the state's most densely inhabited districts, with around 20 lakh voters living in its urban areas. 'Sumathy' Thamizhachi Thangapandian, a member of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK), is the constituency's current MP. She was the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam's (AIADMK) successor to Dr. J Jayavardhan.


Key leader Dayanidhi Maran is running for office for a fourth time in Central Chennai, a stronghold of the ruling DMK, after defeating Sam Paul of the Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK) handily in 2019. Against Paul's 1,46,813 votes, Maran received an astounding 4,47,150 votes. Dr. R Karthikeyan, an actor-politician who lost his 2019 attempt, is running for reelection with actor-party Naam Tamilar Katchi.


The populace of Chennai North Lok Sabha constituency is mostly concerned with infrastructure enhancements, developmental projects, and periodic flooding. DMK’s Dr. Kalanidhi Veeraswamy is seeking re-election; in 2019, he won the seat by beating AIADMK’s TG Venkatesh Babu with a significant vote share of 62 per cent. However, this time, issues like industrial pollution and floods could mar the DMK’s prospects.
