I am proud of what I could do, says Beena Philip
Beena Philip, the outgoing Mayor of Kozhikode, expressed mixed feelings about her five-year tenure, acknowledging accomplishments while acknowledging areas where she felt she could have done more. She attributed the loss of the Pottammal division to the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in recent local body polls to overconfidence and emphasized that party workers had worked diligently. C.P. Musafar Ahamed, the Deputy Mayor who faced criticism for his defeat in the Meenchanda division, was praised by Philip for his calm handling of the Palayam market relocation. Philip plans to take a break from politics before considering future roles.
