The biggest Kerala political story of 2025 is the local elections, but currently, everyone is fixated on the Nilambur bye-election, which is scheduled to take place in a few days. After the resignation of P V Anvar MLA earlier this year, the Election Commission had called for a bye-election to the seat vacated by the MLA.

Will the third fron...
