Kerala Assembly elections | In Nemom constituency, poll buzz hits fever pitch

Campaigning for the Assembly elections in the Nemom constituency has hit a fever pitch, with all the three fronts now commencing their work on the ground. United Democratic Front (UDF) candidate K. Muraleedharan arrived for the first time in the constituency on Tuesday evening, after the announcement of his candidature on Sunday following weeks of intense speculation. Though Mr. Muraleedharan arrived over two hours after the scheduled time due to a delayed flight, a large number of Congress workers waited patiently to accord him a rousing welcome at the Jagathy bridge, one of the boundaries of the Nemom constituency. Flags of all the constituent parties of the UDF were on display as he was led to Karamana on an open four-wheeler, with party workers jostling to get close to him.
