The Nemom constituency (a semi-urban seat on the southern edge of Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala's state capital) is set for a closely watched three-cornered contest in the 2026 Kerala Assembly elections, with all major political blocs claiming confidence of a win. Sitting MLA V. Sivankutty of the Communist Party of India (Marxist), who reclaimed the seat in 2021 after the BJP's O. Rajagopal had won it in 2016, is seeking re-election, while the BJP is mounting a strong campaign led by state president Rajeev Chandrasekhar. The Congress has fielded K.S. Sabarinadhan, a former MLA and current Thiruvananthapuram Corporation councillor, as it attempts to win back a seat it has not held since the constituency's redrawing in 2008.
