Ponnani Assembly Election 2016

Current Trend

In the 2014 Lok Sabha election, V. Abdurahiman of Left Democratic Front (LDF) had taken a lead of 7,658 votes over UDF’s E.T. Mohammed Basheer in the Ponnani Assembly constituency. While the Ponnani municipality and the local bodies of Nannamukku and Marancheri, which are parts of the Ponnani constituency, are under the control of the LDF, UDF is ruling in the Perumpadappu, Veliyankode and Alankode grama panchayats.

While CPIM has once again nominated its sitting MLA P. Sreeramakrishnan, P. T. Ajay Mohan, the runner-up in 2011, is once again in the fray on behalf of the Congress. K.K. Surendran has been fielded by the BJP and M.M. Shakir is the nominee of the Welfare Party. The SDPI is also in contention, though it has a negligible presence in the constituency.
