The BJP has released a list of nine candidates for Tamil Nadu, a state where it is yet to gain a foothold. The party, which plans to contest 20 of the state's 39 seats, has fielded former Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan from Chennai South, state BJP chief K Annamalai from Coimbatore, union minister L Murugun from Nilgiri and senior leaders Pon Radhakrishnan from Kanyakumari and Dr A C Shanmugam from Vellore.
