Who is S. Gandhirajan?

S. Gandhirajan was a Member of the Legislative Assembly of Tamil Nadu. He was elected to represent the constituency Vedasandur, then a constituency of dindigul district, in the elections of 1989, 1991, and 1996. During his period as MLA, He also held the position as the chairman of the "Tamilnadu Water and drainage Board department" and also as the deputy speaker of the legislative assembly from 1993 to 1996.

In 2006 Gandhirajan's "sidelining" by the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam was considered to have weakened their position in Vedasandur, as Gandhirajan loyalists were less willing to work for the candidate nominated in his place. This led to his decision to join the opposition party Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam led by Dr. M. Karunanidhi.
