All three fronts in Wayanad exude confidence
The Hindu
Final tally puts voting percentage in district at 74.98
A day after the polls, leaders of the three political fronts have expressed their hope of registering a resounding victory in the district. CPI(M) district secretary P. Gagarin said that the LDF was in for a historic win in the three Assembly segments in the district. The decline in the polling would benefit the Left Democratic Front (LDF) as a huge number of United Democratic Front (UDF) voters had kept away from voting owing to internal issues in the Congress, Mr. Gagarin claimed. In Sulthan Bathery segment, nearly 7,000 voters failed to cast their votes but the number of voters in Mananthavady and Kalpetta segments were almost equal comparing with the 2016 polls, Mr. Gagarin said.More Related News
