Kerala Assembly election | Heavy turnout sparks political calculations in Tripunithura’s triangular contest

The Tripunithura Assembly constituency led the district in polling until the final rounds, eventually recording a voter turnout of 81.41% — the highest in the constituency’s recent electoral history.

Despite the confident claims of political fronts that the heavy polling favoured them, the three major alliances were forced to reassess their prospects in a constituency that witnessed an intense triangular contest among Deepak Joy of the United Democratic Front (UDF), K.N. Unnikrishnan of the Left Democratic Front (LDF), and Anjaly Nair of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA).
