| The '''first legislative assembly Election''' to the [[Madras state]] based on [[Universal suffrage|universal adult suffrage]] was held in March 1952. This was the first election held in Madras state after the [[Indian independence movement|Indian Independence]]. This election was officially known as the 1951 Madras State Election, even though through delays, actual voting didn't take place until early 1952.
| |
|
| |
| No single party obtained a simple majority to form an independent Government. [[C. Rajagopalachari]] (Rajaji) of the [[Indian National Congress]] became the Chief Minister after a series of re-alignments among various political parties and Independents. The [[Telugu language|Telugu]] speaking regions of Madras State split to form the [[Andhra state]] in 1953, leading to the consolidation of the non-Brahmin Congress faction under the leadership of [[K. Kamaraj]]. Faced with internal dissent and heavy opposition to his [[Hereditary education policy]], Rajaji resigned in 1954. In the ensuing leadership struggle, Kamaraj defeated Rajaji's chosen successor [[Chidambaram Subramaniam|C. Subramaniam]] and became the Chief Minister on 31 March 1954.

| == Background ==
| |
|
| |
| ===Factionalism in Congress===
| |
| In the years after the [[1946 Madras legislative assembly election|1946 election]], factionalism was common place in the Congress party in Madras. During 1946–51, three different Congress chief ministers headed the Madras government. [[T. Prakasam]] was the Chief Minister of Madras presidency immediately after the 1946 election. As a Telugu speaker, he was often at odds with the Madras Provincial Congress Committee president [[K. Kamaraj]]. Kamaraj forced the resignation of Prakasam within a year. In 1947, [[Omandur Ramaswamy Reddiar]], Kamaraj's nominee, became the Chief Minister. When Reddiar showed signs of independence, Kamaraj engineered his removal by a vote of no confidence in Congress Legislature Party on 31 March 1949. [[P. S. Kumaraswamy Raja]], the next Chief Minister who formed the Government on 6 April 1949 was believed to be a stooge of Kamaraj. He retained the chiefministership till the 1952 election when he lost his seat in [[Srivilliputhur (State Assembly Constituency)|Srivilliputhur constituency]].<ref name="Duncan B.

|
| |
| The Prakasam faction later split from the Congress to form the [[Hyderabad State Praja Party]]. The party merged with the [[Kisan Mazdoor Praja Party]] in June 1951.
| |
|
| |
| ===Communists in electoral process===
| |
| In 1951, the [[Communist Party of India]] (CPI) which had been waging an armed struggle during 1948–51, gave up the attempt to wrest power through force and joined the political mainstream. At the 1951 congress of the party, "People's Democracy" was replaced by "National Democracy" as the main slogan of the party and the decision was made to contest the elections. One of the armed movements supported by the CPI was the [[Telangana Rebellion]] in the [[princely state]] of [[Hyderabad State|Hyderabad]]. Though the rebellion was crushed by 1951, the communists retained widespread support in the neighboring [[Andhra state|Andhra]] region. This was due to their policy of linguistic nationalism (the demand for a separate state of [[Telugu language|Telugu]] speaking people) and their support base amongst the [[Kamma (caste)|Kamma caste]] which was opposed to the [[Reddy]] supported Congress. Till then, all the previous elections had been conducted on a limited franchise based on property ownership qualifications. The election of 1951 was the first one to be based on a universal franchise. The Communists had the support of most of the first time voters – landless peasants and agricultural labourers.<ref name="ems">{{Cite book| last =Namboodiripad| first = E.M.S.|author-link=E.M.S.

| ===Split in the Dravidian Movement===
| |
| The [[Dravidar Kazhagam]] (DK), the main opposition party to the Congress in the Tamil speaking areas of the state split in 1949. [[C. N. Annadurai]], once a protege of the DK leader [[Periyar E. V. Ramasamy]], quit the DK and founded a new party – [[Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam]] (DMK). Both the DK and the DMK were secessionist advocates for [[Dravidistan]]- a separate state for Dravidians.<ref name="jeyaraj"/><ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.hinduonnet.com/fline/fl1520/15201330.htm |title=Celebrating a half century, The Hindu 26 September 1998 |access-date=15 December 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050329142734/http://www.hinduonnet.com/fline/fl1520/15201330.htm |archive-date=29 March 2005 |url-status=usurped }}</ref> Some of the old guard of the [[Justice Party (India)|Justice party]], which had been renamed as Dravidar Kazhagam in 1944, refused to accept Periyar's leadership.

| ==Constituencies==
| |
| According to the Delimitation of Parliamentary and Assembly Constituencies (Madras) Order, 1951, made by the President under sections 6 and 9 of the Representation of the People Act, 1950, the Madras Legislative Assembly consisted of 375 seats to be filled by election, distributed in 309 constituencies and 62 two-member constituencies in each of which a seat had been reserved for Scheduled Castes and four two-member constituencies in each of which a seat had been reserved for Scheduled Tribes. Three seats were uncontested. The elections were conducted for the remaining 372 seats.<ref name = "analysis">{{cite web |url=http://www.assembly.tn.gov.in/archive/Resumes/review_01assly/ch01.pdf |title=A Review of the Madras Legislative Assembly (1952-1957)|archive-date=4 September 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110904134752/http://www.assembly.tn.gov.in/archive/Resumes/review_01assly/ch01.pdf |url-status=dead }}</ref>

Two separate list of candidates, a general list and a reserved list, contested in those constituencies. Each voter had to cast two votes – one for each list.
| |
|
| |
| The two winners were chosen as follows:
| |
|
| |
| * '''Reserved Member''' – Candidate with the most votes among the reserved (SC/ST) list candidates
| |
| * '''General Member''' – Candidate with the most votes among the rest of the candidates excluding the Reserved Member (including both reserved and general lists).
| |
|
| |
| This system led to anomalies. In some cases like the Coimbatore – II constituency in the [[1957 Madras legislative assembly election|1957 election]], both elected members belonged to the reserved list – the candidate with second highest number of votes in reserved list secured more votes than the highest vote getter in the general list. Multiple members were elected only in the 1952 and 1957 elections as double member representation was abolished in 1961 by the enactment of Two-Member Constituencies Abolition Act (1961).<ref>{{cite book | first1=Zoya| last1=Hasan | first2=Eswaran| last2=Sridharan| first3=R| last3=Sudharshan| url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Zgt2JdUrsHUC | year= 2005| title=India's living constitution: ideas, practices, controversies| publisher= Anthem Press| pages=360–63| isbn=1-84331-136-4 }}</ref>

Instead it supported the candidates of the [[Vanniyar]] caste based parties – the [[Commonweal Party]] and the [[Tamil Nadu Toilers Party]] – and five independents in [[Chengelpet]], [[Salem District|Salem]], North and South [[Arcot]] districts.

In February 1952, the non-congress members convened under [[Tanguturi Prakasam|T.

| Rajaji was invited by Sri Prakasa to form the Government on 1 April 1952 and was sworn in on 10 April 1952. He refused to run for a by-election and the Governor nominated him for the assembly's upper house (Legislative Council). It was considered to be a "constitutional impropriety" as the nomination of a member to the Council could be done only at the recommendation of the cabinet. But in this case, the Governor acted unilaterally when no cabinet had been formed yet.<ref name="I. N. Tewary"/><ref name="T. V. R.

| === Election of K. Kamaraj ===
| |
| Andhra State was formed from the Telugu-speaking regions of Madras State after a widespread agitation in 1953. The Madras assembly was reduced from 375 to 230, 140 members going to Andhra and 5 to Mysore with the Congress Party controlling 118 seats; an outright majority.<ref name="assembly.tn.gov.in"/> This strengthened the positions of non-Brahmin Congress forces under the leadership of K. Kamaraj. He ousted Rajaji on 31 March 1954 and was elected the leader of Congress Legislative Party. Kamaraj consolidated his position by offering ministerial position to leaders of Tamil Nadu Toilers Party and Commonweal Party. This event marked the end of Brahmin domination in Tamil Nadu Congress.<ref name="James Walch">{{cite book | title=Faction and front: Party systems in South India| author=James Walch| pages=162–163| publisher= Young Asia Publications}}</ref>

| ==Delimitation and Reorganisation==
| |
| On 1 October 1953, a separate [[Andhra State]] consisting of the Telugu-speaking areas of the composite Madras State was formed and the Kannada-speaking area of [[Bellary]] District was merged with the then [[Mysore State]]. This reduced the strength of the Legislative Assembly to 231.
| |
|
| |
| On 1 November 1956, [[Madras State]] was re-organized as per [[States Reorganisation Act, 1956]]. [[Malabar District]] of the state was transferred to the new state of [[Kerala]], and a new union territory, [[Laccadive|Laccadive, Minicoy and Amindivi Islands]], was carved out. The southern part (Tamil-speaking area) of [[Travancore-Cochin]] (present day [[Kanyakumari district]]) and [[Shenkottah]] taluk were merged into the state. Later in 1968, the state was renamed as [[Tamil Nadu]]. This led to re-organization of legislative assembly constituencies during 1957 assembly elections in the state.<ref name="1955ReorgStates">{{cite web | url=http://www.epw.in/system/files/pdf/1955_7/42/reorganisation_of_statesthe_approach_and_arrangements.pdf | title=Reorganisation of States, 1955 | publisher=The Economic Weekly | date=15 October 1955 | access-date=25 July 2015}}</ref>
| |
|
| |
| The strength of the Madras Legislative Assembly was increased to 205 in accordance with the new Delimitation of Parliamentary and Assembly Constituencies Order 1956, made by the Delimitation Commission of India under the provisions of the State Reorganisation Act, 1956.<ref name =A/> The 1957 elections were conducted for these 205 seats.
