Kerala Assembly poll: Deciphering the Malabar mandate
North Kerala, comprising seven districts from Kasaragod to Thrissur, has witnessed a significant shift in the political landscape ahead of the 2026 Assembly elections. The region, previously a stronghold for the CPI(M)-led Left Democratic Front, has become a launchpad for the Congress-led United Democratic Front. The LDF's dominance in this area has significantly weakened, with its seat count plummeting from 50 to just a dozen. This change marks a significant departure from the previous election results and could reshape future political dynamics in the state.
