Voters sent a clear message, CPI(M) refuses self-review: Ramesh Chennithala

Ramesh Chennithala, a senior Congress leader, criticized the CPI(M)'s response to their recent electoral defeat in local body elections. He argued that the party should introspect and warned of further losses if it continues its current approach. Chennithala stated that ordinary people were reacting to harsh realities faced by them, leading to the Left Democratic Front's loss. KC(M) remains with the LDF for now but has not discussed realignment with the UDF. Chennithala emphasized the UDF's growing support from individuals and groups opposed to the Left rule.
