The Congress has announced names of 41 candidates for Tamil Nadu Assembly elections. The party is contesting from 41 seats. All three sitting MLAs, S. Vijayadharani (Vilavancode), J.G. Prince (Colachel) and K. Gopinath (Hosur) have been renominated. According to sources, candidates for the remaining eight seats have not been decided yet due to lack of consensus. AICC secretary S. Thirunavukkarasar's son S. T. Ramachandran has got the Aranthangi ticket. H. Vasanthakumar, who contested the Lok Sabha polls from Kanyakumari, has been fielded from Nanguneri. The Congress had five MLAs in 2011 but two of them later left the party along with G. K. Vasan.
