Praises are heaped on the UDF candidate of Alathur, Ramya Haridas, for her big win in the Lok Sabha polls. Poet S Kalesh came forward congratulating her for emerging victorious. She is a bigger fighter than Congress chief Rahul Gandhi, he wrote in his Facebook page. Looking forward for a new politics under your presence and intervention. Ramya won by a majority of 1,58,968 votes beating P K Biju of the LDF.

There is a similarity between Kalesh and Ramya Haridas. Lecturer and writer Deepa Nishanth has a major role in introducing both to Kerala. Deepa landed in a plagiarism row after Kalesh alleged that she copied the lines of his poem, written and published seven years back. He was noticed after he posted it in his Facebook page with proof.

Remya became popular after Deepa Nishanth mocker her manner of campaigning. Ramya won people’s heart the day she started campaigning.
