PUDUCHERRY: All India NR Congress (AINRC) founder and two-time CM N Rangasamy, who had never lost an election barring his maiden one in 1990, had to swallow a bitter pill on Sunday. He lost the Yanam seat to a novice 28-year old independent G S Ashok, backed by Congress by less than 1,000 votes.

Rangasamy, who contested from two seats, won Thattanchavady, defeating K Sethu (CPI) by 5,456 votes.

The political experiment helped shape UDF’s rainbow political base, bringing together the bulk of Muslims mostly concentrated in Malabar (26.6% as per 2011 census) and Christians based in central Kerala (18.4%) and aligning them with Congress’ traditional anti-Marxist vote base spread across various communities. This political experiment was key to Kerala’s four-decade-old alternating LDF and UDF regimes.
This time, LDF managed to make inroads into what UDF had considered as its electoral fixed deposits.
