Poor coordination of electioneering, absence of K. Muraleedharan spoil party’s chances
After its crushing defeat in the Assembly polls, the Congress leadership will do an introspection on failing to open an account for the fourth time in a row in Kozhikode district. The leadership had given a thought to revamping its electoral strategy for the Assembly polls when the party was roundly trounced in the three-tier local body polls in December. However, this time too, the party failed to win a legislature seat. At the same time, the Revolutionary Marxist Party of India (RMPI), backed by the United Democratic Front , opened its account in the Assembly by winning the Vadakara seat.More Related News
