The first Council Meeting of the expanded Chennai Corporation is set for November 23 at its renovated headquarters - Ripon Building.
For the ruling AIADMK party, which has won a brute majority in the Corporation Council by garnering 168 seats out of 200 and the DMK, which has become the second largest party in the Council with 24 councillors, has nominated Subash Chandra Bose, who won from Ward 58, as the party’s Floor Leader in the House.
While the party’s Saidai S Duraisamy won the prestigious seat from the DMK with over a margin of five lakh votes, the party’s 145th ward Councillor Benjamin was elected unopposed to Deputy Mayor’s post two weeks ago.
