Beach Road stretch from Naval Coastal Battery to Bheemili witnesses huge rush
Tourist places were abuzz with picnickers in the district. Being the last Sunday of the 'Karthika Masam' the footfalls were high at almost all the places compared to previous weeks.
Beach Road stretch from Naval Coastal Battery to Bheemili witnessed a huge rush since morning. A large number of families, children from various schools, colony associations and groups of friends thronged Kailasagiri, Tenneti Park, Indira Gandhi Zoological Park (IGZP), Kambalakonda, Thotlakonda, Mangamaripeta, Mudasarlova and other places apart from Rushikonda, Yarada, Bheemili and Appikonda beaches.
With the clock ticking down to the Lok Sabha election counting day on Tuesday, opposing fronts are perceptibly edgy and poised to continue the rancorous skirmishing that marked the campaign season in Kerala. The United Democratic Front, led by the Congress, is seemingly basking in the “interim victory” granted by various exit polls. The UDF discerns that its poll strategy of turning the polls foremostly into a damning referendum on the Left Democratic Front government’s perceived failures rather than BJP’s “divisive politics” at the national level stood a fighting chance of paying off.
