"There will be a good victory in this election. For the last nine years, the state government has totally neglected the Nilambur area. Many tribals have not been rehabilitated. There is also human-animal conflict here," Shoukath told ANI.
"Today Priyanka Gandhi is coming to Nilambur. It's a part of her constituency. She is coming here for the campaign. We will get a good response from Priyanka Gandhi's visit. Her visit will energise the party workers," party's leader Ramesh Chennithala told ANI in Thrissur.
The byelections were necessitated after Anvar submitted his resignation on January 13 to Assembly Speaker AN Shamseer, days after holding talks with TMC leaders, including Abhishek Banerjee and TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee.
