Ariyalur district gets a representation in the state cabinet with the appointment of AIADMK MLA S Rajendran as the government chief whip. This is the first time a ministerial level post is being accorded to a member elected from Ariyalur. The backward district in terms of every aspect of development seems to have attracted the attention of chief minister J Jayalalithaa to pick Rajendran, who is also the district secretary of the party, for the post.
