Tamilisai Soundrarajan, who is the governor of puducherry and telangana, has announced that he will resign from his post to contest the parliamentary elections in tamil Nadu.
Tamilisai and BJP
Tamilisai Soundrarajan, who played an important role in the development of bjp in tamil Nadu, came to bjp from the congress tradition and became a bjp member in 1999 after meeting South chennai district president 'Leland' Srinivasan. Following this, he has been involved in various struggles for the development of BJP. Starting as a grassroots volunteer, his work rose to become the tamil Nadu bjp state president.
Within 15 years of being a party member, tamilisai became the state president. His slogan 'Tamarai Malanthe Theerum' spread rapidly throughout tamil Nadu. After this, his importance in the party increased. In tamil Nadu, Patti Tanki actively entered the field to grow the bjp everywhere.
Tamilisai in the electoral field
He used to receive complaints and petitions from the public in the name of 'People's meeting' every tuesday at Kamalalayam. Active in public works and party work, he has contested assembly elections many times. But the chance of success kept slipping away. He last contested against kanimozhi in Tuticorin constituency in 2019 and lost by a margin of around 3 lakh votes. The bjp cheered up tamilisai, who was a little tired of this.
Governor is responsible for Tamilisai
Tamilisai was appointed as the governor of telangana State within a few months of the bjp coming back to power at the Centre. In further recognition of his work, he was given the additional charge of a refreshing Deputy Governor. During this period, while the governors were out of politics, he was constantly criticizing the DMK in tamil Nadu politics. tamilisai raised questions about the law and order in tamil Nadu from time to time. As a result, it was reported that tamilisai is trying to return to the political arena.
Tamilisai to contest the election again.?

After the release of the list of candidates on behalf of the bjp, it was reported that he would resign from the post of governor and therefore contest again in the Tuticorin constituency. bjp sources say that there is a high chance of contesting from the Virudhunagar or South chennai constituency, whether or not there is another party.
