Tamil Maanila Congress

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Tamil Maanila Congress was a political party in Tamil Nadu. It was started by G K Moopanar by breaking away from the Indian National Congress protesting the decision of the party high command to form an alliance with the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam. After the death of Moopanar, his son G K Vasan became the party president. It was later decided to merge the party back with the Indian National Congress.
