“Kadambur Raju”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

Kadambur C. Raju (born 30 May 1959 in ) is an Indian politician and incumbent member of the 15th Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly from the Kovilpatti constituency. He represents the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) party.

Raju won the Kovilpatti seat in the 14th Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly in the 2011 elections.^[1] He was initially deselected from contesting the seat in the 2016 elections, with Chief Minister Jayalalithaa preferring to let K. Ramanujam Ganesh stand. However, when it was understood that the experienced Vaiko was to stand there for the People's Welfare Front, Jayalalithaa chose to reinstate Raju because he was a more potent electoral force than Ganesh. A few days later, Vaiko announced that he would not contest the constituency.^[2] Raju won the seat with 428 more votes than his nearest rival.^[3]

Jayalalithaa appointed Raju as Minister for Information and Publicity in May 2016. This was his first cabinet post.^[4] Soon after Jayalalithaa died in December 2016, and despite being in the cabinet, Raju rebelled against Chief Minister O. Paneerselvam. He demanded that V. K. Sasikala should become Chief Minister, arguing that the post and that of party general secretary, which Sasikala held, had always been combined since the party's foundation by M. G. Ramachandran.^[5] Although Sasikala did become party leader in early February, and Paneerselvan resigned as Chief Minister, she was not formally appointed to the office at the time of her conviction for criminal offences that effectively thwarted her ambitions.^[6]^[7]

In April 2017 he was one of three AIADMK ministers against whom police filed a First Information Report after allegations of obstructing officials who were conducting raids related to income tax. He was alleged to have done so at the house of Sarathkumar, an actor-turned-politician.^[8]

Personal life

Raju was born on 30 May 1959 into a Telugu speaking Kamma Naidu family in Kovilpatti^[9]. He has a D.T.Ed. degree and took early retirement from his job as a teacher. He is married and he has two children.^[10]
