Two hours into counting of votes for the local body elections in Kerala, early trends indicate that the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) is poised for a comeback in the state.
The UDF is leading in four out of six corporations and eight out of 14 district panchayats in the state. Out of the 87 municipalities, the front is leading in 49, while the Left Democratic Front (LDF) is ahead in 30. The Congress is leading in eight out of 14 district panchayats, while the CPI(M)-led LDF is leading only in six, as against their win in 11 district bodies in 2020.
Out of the 941 village panchayats, where the LDF had a clear edge in the last two elections, the UDF has this time gained a lead in 368, while the Left front is leading only in 359 bodies.
