It is face-off time at Kozhikode North. The New Indian Express determined to ask the three important contenders 5 questions.

What’s one factor the constituency lacks. How do you propose to deal with it?Your tackle the opponents?How do you propose to deal with points like waterlogging and ingesting water shortage?How will you are taking ahead tasks like improvement of Bypass street and seaside?Your favorite pastime?

Here’s what they needed to say in response:

KM Abhijith, UDF 

Crores of rupees have been allotted for infrastructure improvement of Kozhikode Medical College Hospital and several other tasks had been inaugurated. But the actual issues like waste administration are but to be addressed.

One of my opponents had served because the mayor of Kozhikode metropolis for greater than 10 years. However, he failed to make sure even primary facilities like consolation stations for the general public.

The metropolis lacks primary infrastructure and the UDF authorities will give precedence to this challenge.

The sitting MLA had served the constituency for greater than 15 years. He might have completed loads right here. The UDF is planning to give you a tourism mission linking main pilgrimage centres in Kozhikode, Sarovaram Biodiversity Park and Kozhikode Beach.  

I like to learn books and go on journeys to hill stations.

Thottathil Raveendran, LDF 

My focus can be on persevering with the tasks initiated by the sitting MLA. Priority can be to finish pending tasks like Mananchira-Vellimadukunnu street widening.

Whoever is the opponent, the folks on this constituency know me as town’s mayor for 10 years and it’ll play an important function this election. 

We are attempting to deal with these points in affiliation with Kozhikode municipal company. The LDF authorities focuses on facilitating important facilities for the general public, and offering ingesting water is one amongst them. 

The LDF authorities has already began the work on Kozhikode Bypass and widening of Kannur street. 

 MT RAMESH, NDA

The metropolis’s site visitors woes could be resolved if flyovers are constructed at main junctions like Karaparamba and Eranjippalam and by widening bypass roads.

What main modifications might Thottathil Raveendran introduce in Kozhikode North even after ruling town for 10 years? Congress is aware of it’s weak within the constituency and, therefore, none of its important leaders most well-liked to contest right here.

The Centre has allotted an enormous quantity for sanitation and drainage tasks to each constituency underneath Swachh Bharat Mission. Conolly Canal cleansing stays an enormous challenge.

Though the LDF authorities had spent crores of rupees for beautification of Kozhikode seaside, the realm lacks streetlights and the spot turns into centre of anti-socials throughout night time.

My important pastime is watching motion pictures.  I wished to observe Drishyam 2, however was busy with election work. Also,  I learn books throughout free time.
