LoK Sabha elections: BJP gains a foothold in Kerala even as results bring cheer to UDF and cold comfort for LDF

The Hindu  

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s push to gain a toehold for the BJP in South India paid off surprisingly in Kerala, with the party’s celebrity candidate, Suresh Gopi, stomping to a stunning victory in the Thrissur Lok Sabha constituency. Kerala Election Results 2024 LIVE updates In the hindsight, Mr. Modi’s electioneering travel pattern in South India made political sense. The ruling front attempted to frame the election as an existential battle for minority rights, linguistic diversity, secularism, democracy, and federalism to dispel the UDF and BJP’s gambit of making the Lok Sabha Elections about the perceived failures of the LDF government in Kerala. Satheesan said the Lok Sabha results were a referendum on the LDF government and a setback to the clandestine axis of power struck by the LDF and BJP to displace the UDF in Kerala.
