Congress MP Shashi Tharoor exercised his franchise in Thiruvananthapuram today, April 9, 2026, as voting kicked off for the 140-seat Kerala Assembly. Speaking to the media after casting his vote, Tharoor expressed high confidence in the United Democratic Front (UDF), citing a strong "anti-incumbency" wave against the nearly decade-long LDF administration. Tharoor, who actively campaigned across 59 constituencies, emphasized that the real contest remains between the LDF and UDF, dismissing the BJP's prospects in the state. He urged citizens to vote for "governance that works," highlighting delays in major state projects as a key reason for the public's desire for change. With over 2.71 crore voters eligible to decide the fate of 140 constituencies in this single-phase election, Tharoor’s vote marks a symbolic moment for the Congress-led alliance's bid to return to power.
