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. The speciality this time is that the bye-election is held less than a year before the general election and the winner of this match will be an MLA for less than a year only. This is one of the reasons why experts regard it as a semi-final to the general elections next year.  Let us understand Nilambur Constituency better by understanding its Geography.

#Opinion The Kerala Story is a film released on 5th May by director Sudipto Sen. It is based on three women from Kerala recruited by ISIS and to Afghanistan without their proper knowledge (forcefully). This movie prior to its release as well as after it saw massive political controversies, surrounding this. This article will talk about the film's political implications and how it will benefit the BJP; not on the content of the same.
