Deliberations on posts of Mayor and Deputy Mayor to gather steam
The newly elected councillors of the 74-member Kochi Corporation Council will be sworn in on Monday, with several first-time councillors among them.
“A majority of councillors of all the three fronts are newcomers,” said M. Anil Kumar, a probable Mayor candidate of the Left Democratic Front (LDF).
The presence of five National Democratic Alliance (NDA) councillors will also be a first in the council. The NDA, which has never won more than two seats in the council, bagged five this time. Besides Ernakulam Central and Cherlai, which have remained BJP bastions for decades, the NDA won Island North, Amaravathy, and Ernakulam South.
