Rangasamy files nomination for May 16 Assembly polls

AINRC leader and Puducherry Chief Minister N Rangasamy today filed his nomination papersfor the May 16 Assembly polls seeking re-election from Indira Nagar constituency.
He was elected in the 2011 Assembly polls simultaneously from Indira nagar and Kadirkamam constituencies.
However, he vacated the Indira Nagar seat and retained Kadirkamam.
AINRC stormed to power in 2011 Assembly polls in alliance with AIADMK months after it was founded by Rangasamy, who broke away from Congress.
But the alliance did not last long as Rangasamy ditched the AIADMK andformed the ministry with the outside support of the lone Independent member.
AINRC is contesting this time without any alliance.
