PALAKKAD: Palakkad NDA candidate C Krishna Kumar said the reason for the defeat in the by-polls will be examined. A detailed study will be done after getting the booth wise vote tally. As for the BJP, Palakkad is not a constituency from which there is no return. Krishna Kumar also said that this election result will become a platform for introspection for the next municipal and assembly elections.
If it is 28 seats now, it will be changed to 35 seats in the next municipal elections. If there are mistakes, will rectify it and come back stronger. The BJP has retained the basic votes in Palakkad. Sreedharan sir received individual votes when contested. Palakkad is not our sitting seat. We are second in position in the assembly constituency where UDF won thrice. The BJP is not disappointed in any way. Krishna Kumar said they will come back after learning from the setbacks.
Krishna Kumar's reply to questions about Sandeep Varier was harsh. No Varier or Nair has affected the BJP. Varier and Nair have not been able to make any effect in this. Has anyone left the party mentioned by Sandeep? Krishna Kumar responded that BJP has not lost a single vote from places he mentioned.
