Early lifeAngidi Chettiar was born in Aruppukkottai in Virudhunagar district in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, and he belongs to the Tamil Devanga Chettiar community. He came to Mauritius at the age of 10. His family were traders. Angidi Chettiar throughout his political career was a staunch member of the Mauritius Labour Party. He served the party for more than 50 years and held the position of treasurer of the party for a few decades. Before being appointed Vice-President of Mauritius, Angidi Chettiar was a member of the Legislative Assembly for many years, serving as Government Chief Whip and eventually Minister in the Government of Prime Minister Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam from 1980 to 1982. He served a first term as Vice President from 1997 to 2002, and he briefly became Acting President in 2002 when Cassam Uteem resigned. However, Chettiar also resigned within days after refusing to sign a controversial anti-terrorism bill, saying that the bill was discriminatory against Muslims. The line of succession then tipped the presidency to Supreme Court Justice Ariranga Pillay. After the come-back of Navin Ramgoolam, current Leader of Mauritius Labour Party, to power, Chettiar was reappointed as Vice-President of Mauritius for a second term by the President of Mauritius, Anerood Jugnauth, in 2007. He died while serving as Vice President on 15 September 2010.[1] He suffered from health problems for a few months before his death. He is survived by four sons and one daughter. Another son has already died.
