Former Finance Minister K.N. Balagopal secured a victory in Kottarakkara despite a UDF wave in other regions. He attributed his success to the development projects worth ₹1,300 crore implemented in the constituency over the last five years, including IT parks and educational institutions. His strong connection with the local community and leads in key panchayats like Veliyam and Kareepra ensured his win. Balagopal vowed to continue his efforts to complete pending projects through the new government. https://keralakaumudi.com/news/kerala/general/kerala-1743514 #creator program
