pbrazakManjeshwar, May 19: The Bharatiya Janata Party's efforts to enter Kerala Legislative Assembly through Manjeshwar segment has finally failed as the Indian Union Muslim League has managed to retain the constituency.

Sitting MLA PB Abdul Razak, who harped on the development projects he has initiated in the relatively backward area in the last five years, has emerged victorious again.

This time all the three fronts had opted to field the same candidates who contested the 2011 Assembly election in Manjeshwar.

BJP candidate K Surendran, for the sixth consecutive times has emerged as the runner-up. This time it was a “just miss” for him as he lost the election to Mr Razak by a margin of 89 votes. In 2011 the margin was of 5,828 votes.

The unconditional support offered to the Left Democratic Front by the influential Sunni leader Kanthapuram AP Abubacker Musliyar did not make any impact on the result in Manjeshwar even though the winning margin is reduced.
