Political career
During the 1967 Madras State Legislative Assembly election, Thangappan was elected from Ramanathapuram constituency by a margin of 8,610 votes. By his victory, he ended the three-term-streak of his predecessor Shanmugha Rajeswara Sethupathi (the then Zamindar of Ramnad who contested as an Indian National Congress candidate).[1]
This feat made C. Rajagopalachari to describe Thangappan as the ‘Julius Caesar of South India’.[2][3]
