<p data-path-to-node="25"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><b data-path-to-node="25" data-index-in-node="44">Now</b>, the new CM is V.D.

<p data-path-to-node="26"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><b data-path-to-node="26" data-index-in-node="0">Q: Why did K.C. Venugopal lose the race?</b></span></p>
<p data-path-to-node="26"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><b data-path-to-node="26" data-index-in-node="41">Actually</b>, the party did not want a by-election. <b data-path-to-node="26" data-index-in-node="89">Therefore</b>, choosing a sitting MLA like Satheesan was much safer.</span></p>
