On Friday, the entire state of Kerala was fixated on Puthuppally. No miracles happened, as Chandy Oommen toppled the LDF candidate in a canter, and turned out to be the ideal successor to his father in Puthuppally. However, now actor Subeesh Sudhi wrote a small anecdote on Facebook about LDF candidate Jaick C Thomas, and the post in no time is being discussed.
According to the actor, he enquired with Jaick about the possible chance of a loss due to the sympathy wave created by the demise of Oommen Chandy. The reply from Jaick floored the actor.
"This is a movement in which so many people have become martyrs for the party. I am ready to lose not once, twice, three times, but ten times for this party," This is comrade Jaick says Subeesh.
UDF candidate Chandy Oommen got 80,144 votes while LDF man Jaick got 42,425 votes in Puthuppally by-election.
