The Left Democratic Front government, which has completed the first year of its second term, has gained more popular support, which is evident from the results of the local body elections, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has said.
The results of the local body elections have been a big confident booster for the government, which is committed to its policy of development rooted in social welfare. The fact that the LDF won even in those local bodies where there were stringent protests against the Silverline project is an indication of the faith that the people have reposed in this government, he said.
The Opposition’s recriminatory campaign against Silverline would not pass muster with the voters, he added.
