Kerala elections 2026: LDF poised to retain power, says Binoy Viswam
Binoy Viswam, CPI Kerala State secretary, believes voters in the state are likely to re-elect the Left Democratic Front (LDF) due to a national context shaped by political tensions and concerns about democracy, secularism, and national sovereignty. Viswam argues that these factors are influencing voter sentiment and that people are voting "under the clouds of war" due to the actions of leaders like Narendra Modi, Donald Trump, and Benjamin Netanyahu. He also criticized the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) for aligning with the BJP, accusing them of abandoning the legacy of Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru.
