Ganesh was fielded by the party for the earlier by-election as well. Bypoll to RK Nagar was cancelled due to allegations of large-scale cash distribution to voters.

Currently, he is serving as the party’s area secretary of RK Nagar (East) unit. He was born in Madurai and brought up in Chennai. A graduate from the Sir Theagaraya College in New Washermenpet, Ganesh later studied Law at the Venkateswara Law College in Tirupati.
