The Hindu
Third election to president post in the local body
Bindu Pradeep of the BJP was elected president of the Chennithala Thripperunthura grama panchayat in Alappuzha on Tuesday. Six Congress members abstained from voting. Ms. Pradeep polled seven votes, including six of the BJP and one Independent. CPI(M) candidate Vijayamma Philendran got four votes. The vote of a CPI(M) member was declared invalid. It was the third election in the last four months to the post of the president of the panchayat after no political front won a clear majority in the local body polls held in December 2020. In the local body elections, both the Congress-led United Democratic Front and the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance won six seats each in the 18-member council. The CPI(M)-led Left Democratic Front got five seats, including an LDF Independent. A UDF rebel who fought the polls as an Independent candidate secured one seat.
