Lok Sabha polls will be CPI(M)‘s Waterloo: Chennithala

There is no doubt that the Lok Sabha elections 2024 will be the Communist Party of India (Marxist)‘s [CPI(M)] Waterloo, said senior Congress leader Ramesh Chennithala here on Tuesday.

The people of Kerala have no reason to vote for the Left Democratic Front (LDF) in the Lok Sabha elections because even Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has nothing to highlight about his government’s administrative success or any high points of the LDF rule in the State. At the same time, there are a thousand reasons for people not to vote for the LDF, Mr. Chennithala said.

The successes that came the way of the United Democratic Front (UDF) in Thrikkakkara and Puthuppally byelections will be repeated in the Lok Sabha elections also. Strong anti-incumbency feelings against the ruling Central and State governments and people’s disgust towards the communal polarisation policies of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Mr. Vijayan will be the highlight of this election, he said.
