N.K. Premachandran
N.K.​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ Premachandran is a politician from India, more specifically from Kerala, and a leader of the Revolutionary Socialist Party. He is the Member of Parliament from the Kollam Lok Sabha constituency and has thrice been elected to the Parliament. He is actively involved in the debates of the Parliament, and his most frequent themes are the accountability of public officials and the participation of the public in the decision-making process.

He is still an MP and is therefore committed to the progress of the area, as well as the satisfaction of his parliamentary ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌duties.
