Tamil Nadu election 2026: Alangulam constituency lacks job opportunities, vegetable storage facilities

In the Alangulam constituency of Tamil Nadu, a fierce battle is brewing between candidates from the ruling DMK and the AIADMK ahead of the April 23rd elections. The contest pits incumbent MLA against a former MP, with the DMK fielding P.H. Manoj Pandian, who recently defected from the opposition party. Other contenders include Prabhakaran of the AIADMK and candidates from the NTK and TVK parties. The constituency has faced challenges such as groundwater depletion due to illegal stone mining, and a lack of adequate storage facilities for agricultural produce.
