BJP has been victorious in the Charuvilakam ward even before. The candidate who won laurels earlier was Karthikeyan, BJP District Secretary.

The by-elections were held following the resignation of CPM’s Bindu Balasreekandhan. A Panchayat Vice-President, Bindu tendered her resignation in support of Selvaraj. However, She did not contest for the by-elections that took place. The candidate who contested was Lilly, who had the blessings of both Selvaraj and the Congress.
