WITH KPCC general secretary Aryadan Shoukath and Malappuram DCC president V S Joy emerging as top contenders for the Congress ticket to the Nilambur by-election, the party's state leadership finds itself in a catch-22 situation. While a survey conducted by the AICC found favour with Shoukath, an independent evaluation gave Joy the upper hand.

The survey was conducted to ascertain the UDF's chances and support for the probable candidates. Only the names of Shoukath and Joy were considered.
