The V4People party would continue their efforts to highlight people’s issues while also exposing inefficiency and corruption, notwithstanding their performance in the Assembly polls, said campaign controller Nipun Cherian. The party had fielded candidates in three constituencies in Ernakulam district, with ‘ship’ as the symbol. In Kochi, Mr. Cherian came fifth in the vote tally. In December 2020, V4Kochi (which went on to become V4People) had won 10.20% of the vote share in the local body polls in Kochi, within three months of its formation and stood second in three constituencies.The election authorities are gearing up for the counting of votes cast in the simultaneous elections to Lok Sabha and Assembly seats in Andhra Pradesh, scheduled to be held on June 4. The Collectors and Election Officers of Visakhapatnam, Anakapalli and Alluri Sitharama Raju (ASR) districts said on May 23 (Thursday) that their teams were ready for the counting of votes.
Responding to the prolonged water scarcity, the residents of the area took to the streets in protest on Wednesday. The protest, which drew attention to their plight, stopped only after the intervention of the police. It was not until 1.30 p.m. that a 4000-litre tanker was finally delivered by BWSSB, providing relief to the water-starved residents.
