Thrikkakara bypoll result: Congress-led UDF's Uma Thomas wins Assembly seat by historic margin of over 25,000 votes While the CPI(M), which had conducted an unprecedented grassroots level campaigning under Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan in the constituency, termed the defeat as "unexpected" and a "shock", the jubilant Congress said their resounding victory was a slap on the face of the second Vijayan government on its first anniversary.
