  • Congress Lok Sabha Election Winners Candidate FULL List 2024: Check Constituency Wise Full List Of Winners Candidate Name Total Vote Margin and More |

    The Indian National Congress (INC), which has strong roots in India’s political history, is preparing for the 2024 Lok Sabha election. The party that carried the country to independence and shaped its early years has had fluctuating electoral fortunes over the decades.

    In the first general election of 1951-52, the INC won 364 seats. This supremacy lasted into the 1960s, with the party winning a majority in every election. However, the 1967 elections represented a watershed moment, as the INC’s seat count fell below 300 for the first time, winning 283 out of 520 seats.

    In recent years, the Congress has faced challenges in the form of electoral defeats and internal restructuring. However, the party continues to hold substantial influence in various regions and remains a central figure in the opposition alliance. 

    In the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the Indian National Congress (INC) faced a significant setback, securing only 52 seats. This result was a stark contrast to its historical performance, where it often led with a majority. As the Lok Sabha elections 2024 draw near, the INC’s campaign is expected to focus on key issues such as economic growth, social justice, and national unity.

    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.

    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.

However, this time, issues like industrial pollution and floods could mar the DMK’s prospects.
