Chennai: A day after Congress announced candidates for the April 24 Lok Sabha polls in Tamil Nadu, resentment over selection of candidates reared its head with a group staging protest at the party headquarters here.
Supporters of aspiring candidate for Chidambaram seat, Maniratnam staged a protest at the Satyamurthy Bhavan here, criticising the selection of P Vallalperumal.
They also raised slogans against Union Finance Minister P Chidambaram, suspecting that he had helped his supporter to get the ticket, but were later pacified by state unit President B S Gnanadesikan.
