Shornur election results 2026: CPI(M) holds Shornur seat, P Mammikutty wins with 70,583 votes

SHORNUR: The Shornur Assembly seat result has been declared, with CPI(M) candidate P Mammikutty emerging victorious after securing 70,583 votes. He defeated INC candidate P Harigovindan, his nearest rival, by a margin of 16,517 votes following the completion of counting.

Celebrated for its Thrissur-Palakakkad border arts heritage, the Shornur Assembly constituency secures the 51st position among Kerala's 140 legislative seats, vital to the Palakkad Lok Sabha region.

This general seat mobilizes over 200,000 voters from a diverse Hindu-Ezhava-Nair-Muslim fabric, achieving turnouts around 76-77per cent, encompassing Shornur town and grama panchayats along north Kerala's transport corridors. It bolsters LDF's forward march via CPI(M), offsetting UDF's cultural-political inroads in this iconic railway junction hub.

In the 2021 Kerala Assembly elections, CPI(M)'s P. Mammikutty dominated with 74,400 votes at 48.98 per cent, demolishing INC's T.H. Firoz Babu's 37,726 votes (24.83 per cent) by a resounding 36,674-vote margin amid 76.64 per cent turnout. The 2016 sweep continued with CPI(M)'s P.K. Sasi claiming 66,165 votes (46.7 1 per cent), surging past INC's C. Sangeetha's 41,618 votes (29.38 per cent) by 65,918 votes from nearly 190,000 voters, cementing LDF's commanding streak.

As 2026 beckons, Shornur's LDF supremacy since 2011, rooted in labor rights, arts patronage, and rural uplift, confronts UDF-BJP pincer moves. Festival economies and connectivity upgrades will ignite debates, positioning this LDF fortress as a Palakkad trendsetter in Kerala's sharpening north-south divide.
