* Go to Tamil Nadu State Election Commission web portal (tnsec.tn.nic.in)
* On the top of the screen, click on 'Urban Local Bodies, 2022 -- Nominations Filed -- Abstract Information about Candidate'
* From the list of districts, select out of three options
- Ward member of the corporation
- Municipal ward member
- Ward member of the municipality
* Once you have selected one option out of the three; say for instance Chennai, a new page opens with the list of wards under the city corporation. If you are unsure about the ward you reside in, just search using the district name and ward number 1. We searched for Chennai and received this detailed list of wards in the corporation (https://chennaicorporation.gov.in/others/StreetNames.pdf)
* Once you know which ward you reside in, click on the option that shows you the total number of nominations received.
* You will now be able to see the name of the candidate, details of their family members, the candidate's age, and the party they belong to. There is also an option where you can download and read the nomination form of the candidates in your ward.
