{{/usCountry}}“While this counting started, we were having expectations because we approached the people by speaking only about the development of Wayanad...This development-oriented election campaign was being done during this election. We had hoped that people would be executing their minds accordingly for development. But unfortunately, the election turnout was very low. BJP couldn't reach the level that we expected...In the last 5 years, if we see, no work was done in any sector. People of Wayanad have been longing for medical college for decades but that also was not implemented...Another 5 years will also be like that. Priyanka Vadra will also be in a visiting mode to Wayanad. So, in this campaign, we were asking the people to be with us. But we couldn't win this time,” Haridas said.
