Kerala Assembly Election 2016

The LDF returned to power in Kerala, winning 91 of the 140 seats in an election that saw the Congress routed and the BJP entering the assembly after decades of waiting.

As widely anticipated, the Left Democratic Front (LDF) led by the Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) unseated the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) in the May 16 battle.

LDF had won 91 seats, with the CPI-M itself grabbing 58. In contrast, the entire UDF tally was 47, a clear sign of the voters' disgust against a government that battled corruption charges.
