Munnar : UDF loses Munnar Panchayat after a governance stint spanning one-and-half-decades. The fall came about after LDF successfully passing its no-confidence motion against the Vice President with 2 UDF members voted in favour of Left.
The president submitted his resignation minutes before the bringing in motion, thereby putting it to vote without prior discussions. The motion sailed through with 12 unopposed votes. Congress members kept away from voting. A small skirmish erupted as UDF members accosted a few dissenters from within their own.
