KK Shailaja Likely to Contest from New Constituency Amid Kerala and Tamil Nadu Political Developments

Four-time MLA KK Shailaja may be fielded from Peravoor instead of her previous constituency, Mattannur, where she had a significant victory. CPI(M) insiders suggest strategic reasons for this change, while critics of Pinarayi Vijayan offer alternative explanations. Meanwhile, in Tamil Nadu, Congress has involved veteran leader P Chidambaram to address seat-sharing talks with the DMK. Rahul Gandhi's recent visits to Kerala have reportedly caused dissatisfaction within some party sections.
