Kerala civic bypolls: CPI(M)-led LDF bags 16 of 30 seats, BJP fails to win any seat despite Sabarimala protests

Notwithstanding the row over the Sabarimala women entry issue, the ruling CPI(M)-led LDF in Kerala Friday bagged 16 out of the 30 seats in the bypolls conducted for various local bodies across the state.
The Congress-led United Democratic Front got 12 seats while the Revolutionary Marxist Party (RMP) and a Congress rebel retained the seats at Onchiyam in Kozhikode and Alappuzha district respectively.
The BJP, which spearheaded the Sabarimala protests and had high hopes, came a cropper, failing to win any seat.
