AIADMK Maanagaram district secretary and former minister KV Ramalingam filed his nomination paper for district secretary post in the ongoing  party organisation  election to the election returning officers and Ex-MLAs Asaimani and Paunraj   at the party office at Erode on Thursday. 

The election is held for district level posts-party district presidium chairman, treasurer, joint secretary, 2 deputy secretaries (one reserved for woman) and one general council member in each Assembly segment. The posts will be filled up on consensus basis by party high command  if more than one person applies for each post.
