Mani C Kappan defeated United Democratic Front candidate Advocate Jose Tom to win the Pala assembly by-polls.
The by-election in four assembly seats in Chhattisgarh, Kerala, Tripura and Uttar Pradesh – Dantewada, Pala, Badharghat and Hamirpur – respectively was held on September 23.
The bypoll in Hamirpur has been necessitated following the disqualification of sitting BJP MLA Ashok Kumar Singh Chandel after he was convicted in a murder case.
