Startling To See How Much Support Both BJP & CPI Candidates Garnered In Thiruvananthapuram: Tharoor Incumbent Congress MP Shashi Tharoor retained his Thiruvananthapuram Lok Sabha seat for a record fourth time, staving off a spirited challenge from Union Minister and BJP candidate Rajeev Chandrasekhar, who was earlier leading him for a brief moment. Tharoor, a former UN diplomat, has been representing the seat since 2009. Counting of votes in this constituency along with 19 remaining seats in Kerala began at 8 am. India Today Axis My India exit poll had predicted earlier that Chandrasekhar would have an edge over Tharoor. The Lok Sabha contest in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala's most populous city, has been primarily between the Congress and the Communist Party of India (Marxist), with the BJP gaining prominence in recent elections. In the 2019 Lok Sabha polls, Tharoor secured a hat-trick victory with 4,16,131 votes, while BJP candidate Kummanam Rajashekharan secured the second position with 316,142 votes.
