Shobana George to join LDF
text_fieldsAlappuzha: Congress leader Shobana George is moving to the Left Front and will take part in the LDF convention taking place on Tuesday which will be inaugurated by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan.
She had bagged 3966 votes in 2016, when she contested the election as an independent candidate in Chengannur. Shobana won the Chengannur seat for three consecutive elections since 1991. She was sidelined when P C Vishnunath became a candidate. That was when she entered the scene as an independent candidate.
Shobana completely distanced herself from the party. Though she continued to be in public space, she was not part of any alliance.
Kodiyeri Balakrishnan met Shobana at her residence after Saji Cherian was announced as the LDF candidate and held a meeting in which they welcomed her to LDF.
