Kalai Arasu&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (born 15 July 1954) is an Indian politician and was a member of the [[Fourteenth Assembly of Tamil Nadu|14th Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly]] from the [[Anaicut (State Assembly Constituency)|Anaicut constituency]] in [[Vellore District]]. He was elected as a candidate of the [[Pattali Makkal Katchi]] (PMK) party.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|title=List of MLAs from Tamil Nadu 2011 |url=http://www.assembly.tn.gov.in/member_list.pdf |publisher=Government of Tamil Nadu |accessdate=2017-04-26 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120320103427/http://www.assembly.tn.gov.in/member_list.pdf |archivedate=20 March 2012 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
