Kundara Assembly Election 2016

Current Trend

Till 2011 Kundra has the unique distinction of electing MLAs belonging to the ruling fronts in Kerala. That changed in 2011 when the M.A. Baby of the CPIM was elected though the United Democratic Front (UDF) formed the government in the state.

While the CPIM has once again nominated its former two-time MLA J. Mercykutty to contest the seat in 2016 elections, Rajmohan Unnithan of the Congress is in the fray on behalf of the UDF. The BJP has fielded M.S. Shyam Kumar.

In the 2014 Lok Sabha elections N.K. Premachandran of the RSP had secured a lead of 6,911 votes over his nearest rival M.A. Baby of the LDF in the Kundara segment. However, in 2015 local body elections, the LDF emerged victorious in all the seven panchayats of the Kundara assembly constituency.
