Congress hails ‘historic’ mandate; LDF, BJP to probe setbacks in Kochi
Muhammed Shiyas, president of the District Congress Committee, declared the United Democratic Front's (UDF) victory in the Kochi Corporation as a historic setback for the Pinarayi Vijayan-led Left Democratic Front (LDF). Shiyas attributed the UDF's success to anti-incumbency sentiment and perceived inefficiency within the LDF government, while CPI(M) district secretary S. Satish expressed surprise at the unexpected result, vowing a thorough examination of the results. N. Arun, another CPI leader, acknowledged the setback despite the LDF's development work but emphasized their commitment to serving the people and regaining power. K.S. Shaiju, BJP city district president, downplayed the party's performance while Hibi Eden, Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee vice president, highlighted the electorate's rejection of the government.
