BJP’s Kerala in-charge Prakash Javadekar launched a scathing attack on both the United Democratic Front (UDF) and the Left Democratic Front (LDF) in Kerala stating that these fronts are involved in a mock fight and have nothing new to offer for the state.

Speaking to media persons here on Sunday, Javadekar said the UDF and LDF are engaged in a superficial fight in Kerala, disguising their alliances in other states. He said the voters in the state are confident in Narendra Modi’s third term, acknowledging his efforts in delivering welfare schemes without discrimination.

Drawing parallels with their electoral fate in West Bengal, where both Congress and the LDF ruled for over three decades, the BJP leader predicted a similar downfall for them in Kerala.

“The UDF and the LDF have no future. They are parties of the past. In Kerala, they are playing a mock fight. They are allies practically in all other states and in reality they are tactically together here in Kerala also. They have nothing new to offer, therefore, they are raking up irrelevant issues. Congress and LDF ruled in West Bengal for more than 30 years each. Now, the tally of both the parties in the West Bengal Assembly is a ‘big zero’. The same fate awaits them in Kerala in the near future,” he said.

He alleged that the LDF Government had failed on all fronts and is mired in corruption scandals.

The LDF Government’s involvement in various scandals, including CMRL, gold smuggling, and cooperative society scams, is evidence of its failure on multiple fronts, Javadekar said.

He condemned the alleged disruptive activities of communist groups on college campuses, which he claims are detrimental to the education system.

The BJP leader attributed Kerala’s job crisis to the government’s anti-development policies. “It has failed miserably in the creation of Jobs as it lacks industrialisation. The government’s policies and administrative processes are anti-development, complex and time-consuming along with inadequate infrastructure. The trouble of unions faced by any venture is well known, therefore, Kerala doesn’t produce jobs. As a result, the youths of Kerala are going to other states and countries for education and jobs,” Javadekar pointed out.

Calling Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership unparalleled, Javadekar said the prime minister has a vision to transform India into a developed nation by 2047. The BJP emphasised its track record of good governance under the mantra of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas.
