Keralites are witnessing intense political activity as campaigning for the bypolls in the Wayanad Lok Sabha and Chelakkara Assembly segments wraps up. As November 13 approaches, every party is vying for victory, promising a fiercely competitive polling day.

The historically UDF-held Wayanad and LDF-dominated Chelakkara might see an electoral upset due to evolving political landscapes. Notably, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra spearheads the UDF campaign in Wayanad, boosted by support from Rahul Gandhi.

On the LDF's side, Sathyan Mokeri, and Navya Haridas of the BJP-NDA are in full campaign mode. Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and other political heavyweights make their presence felt in Chelakkara, as the bypoll preparations reach fever pitch.
