A crucial Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee post-poll stocktaking exercise on Saturday reportedly deliberated how the “relative lack of voter enthusiasm” will impact the party’s prospects in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
In 2019, the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) crested a wave of eagerness for Rahul Gandhi’s Wayanad candidature to win 19 seats in Kerala.
Congress’ top brass reportedly noted with worry that the voting percentage was particularly low in some UDF strongholds. (The Communist Party of India (Marxist) had claimed that the voting pattern would augur well for the Left Democratic Front.)
