Senior Congress leader P. Chidambaram on Sunday accused the CPI(M) of treating the 2024 Lok Sabha polls as if it were a State-level election in Kerala.
The former Union Finance Minister appealed to the people of Kerala to vote for the Congress, which leads the United Democratic Front (UDF) in the State, since it is better placed than the CPI(M) to form a government at the national level.
“The CPI(M) is fighting the election in Kerala as if it is a State election, This is wrong. My appeal to Mr. Pinarayi Vijayan is to look at this election as a national election which it is. And in the national point of view, who is better placed to fight the BJP? Who is better placed to form the government in Delhi? These are the two questions I will ask myself if I’m a CPI(M) leader,” he said.
