Lok Sabha polls | SDPI support for Lok Sabha election lands Congress in a quagmire

The Hindu  

The Congress on Wednesday depicted the Social Democratic Party of India’s controversial public declaration of support for the party in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections in somewhat ambiguous terms. The Congress’s refusal to reject SDPI’s backing arguably stemmed from the perception that it could not take Muslim votes for granted in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. The party has repeatedly cited editorials published by the mouthpieces of influential Muslim social organisations, including their concerns about increasing defections from the Congress to the BJP, to bolster the Left Democratic Front’s case. In Wayanad, BJP State president K. Surendran termed Mr. Gandhi’s “silence” on the SDPI’s unconditional support of the Congress in the Lok Sabaha polls “perilous.” In Thiruvananthapuram, the BJP’s Kerala-in-charge, Prakash Javadekar, termed the purported alliance a threat to national security.
