DMK Working President MK Stalin on Saturday said the party will retain N Marudhu Ganesh as its candidate for the ensuing by-election for the Radhakrishnan Nagar assembly constituency in Tamil Nadu.

Speaking to reporters here, Stalin said party General Secretary K Anbazhagan has announced Ganesh will be the party candidate for the December 21 by-election.

The seat fell vacant following the death of Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa on December 5, 2016.

Though the by-election was scheduled for April 12, 2017, it was countermanded following reports of attempted voter bribing by a candidate.

Stalin also said the DMK would also seek the support of other parties for its candidate.
