BJP will make a difference in Kerala politics with this election: Prakash Javadekar

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) State election in-charge Prakash Javadekar on Sunday sought to portray the BJP as the party of the future in Kerala, accusing the Left Democratic Front (LDF) and the United Democratic Front (UDF) of being involved in a “mock fight” and having “nothing new to offer”. Speaking at a press conference here, he alleged that the LDF government has failed on all fronts and is mired in corruption scandals.

“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 WB assembly is a ‘BIG ZERO’. The same fate awaits them in Kerala in the near future,” he said.

Calling the upcoming Lok Sabha polls a “pro-incumbency election”, he expressed confidence that BJP will make a difference in Kerala politics forever in this election.
