Indian politician. Born in Salem district, Madras state (now Tamil Nadu) in southern India. Commonly known as Rājājī.

When the Congress government was established in Madras state in 1937 following the introduction of state autonomy, he became its prime minister and promoted national education and prohibition of alcohol.
