The situation in the local municipal body elections in Kerala has now become quite clear. UDF has gained lead in this election. BJP has captured Thiruvananthapuram Municipal Corporation. BJP has snatched the chair from LDF which was in power here for four decades. Now on this, Congress leader and Thiruvananthapuram MP Shashi Tharoor has expressed happiness and congratulated UDF Kerala.
He posted on X and wrote – What wonderful results there have been in the Kerala local body elections! The mandate is clear. The democratic spirit of the state is clearly visible in this. Congratulations to UDF Kerala for this impressive victory. The party has received considerable support. There are powerful signals ahead of the assembly elections in the state. Hard work, a strong message and an anti-incumbency wave, all together have given much better results than in 2020.
Congratulations to BJP on Thiruvananthapuram victory
‘I also want to acknowledge the historic performance of BJP in Thiruvananthapuram. I humbly congratulate him on his important victory in the City Municipal Corporation. It’s a strong performance, reflecting a remarkable change in the capital’s political landscape. I had campaigned for a change from 45 years of LDF misgovernance, but voters have rewarded another party.
This is the beauty of democracy. People’s decision should be respected. Be it for UDF or BJP in my constituency.
He said, we will continue to work for the betterment of Kerala. Will continue to advocate for the needs of the people. Will maintain the principles of good governance. Keep moving forward.
