UDF and LDF ‘unite’ in fight for ‘BJP-free Kerala Assembly’

India TV News  

Thiruvananthpuram: With electioneering for the May 16 Assembly polls in Kerala picking up steam, emergence of the BJP-led NDA third front has become the main campaign plank of the ruling UDF and its rival LDF with both targeting it and as as a result relegating to the background, the solar and bar bribery scams. With only a fortnight left for the polls, both UDF and LDF are fiercely attacking the BJP led-NDA alliance with slogan of ‘BJP free Kerala Assembly’ as their main agenda. Launching a fierce attack on BJP, CWC member and former Defence Minister A K Antony set the tone with his statement that Congress party’s main agenda is to ensure that BJP does not open its account in the state in the assembly polls. CPI-M politburo member Prakash Karat welcomed Antony’s remark but said Congress “has no resources neither politically or ideologically to take on the BJP and in Kerala, it is only LDF that can challenge the saffron party.” Both Congress and CPI-M leaders also asserted that BJP would not win a single seat this time also despite the campaign hype the saffron party is trying to create by lining up its top leaders including Prime Minister Narendra Modi to canvass for NDA candidates. Slamming Antony for his remark against BJP, party state President Kummanom Rajasekharan said “Antony is trying to divide the society on communal lines.” “Antony’s attempt is to create communal tension in the state by provoking religious communities,” Rajasekharan said adding he would approach Election Commission against the former defence minister’s statement.
