There are 14 candidates in Thanjavur constituency while 39 candidates are contesting in Aravakurichi.

The bypoll in Thirupparankundram constituency in Madurai district was necessitated as S M Seenivel of AIADMK died before taking oath as a member of the assembly after the May 16 election. The main contenders in this constituency are A K Bose of AIADMK and P Saravanan of DMK. There are 28 candidates in the fray in Thirupparankundram.

Byelection was necessitated in Nellithope assembly constituency in Puducherry after Congress legislator A John Kumar resigned from the assembly to enable chief minister V Narayanasamy to be elected to the House. Narayanasamy didn’t contest in the May 16 assembly election. Narayanasamy, who assumed charge on June 6, will continue as chief minister if he wins the election.
AIADMK candidate Om Sakthi Sekar, who won twice from Nellithope constituency (in 2006 and 2011) before losing last assembly poll to John Kumar, is the main opponent of Nararyanasamy. There are eight candidates in the constituency.
