Since its formation in 2011, the Thrikkakara constituency has only sent Congress candidates to the State Assembly. Isn’t the high-voltage campaign by the Left, therefore, pointless?
It’s wrong to assume that anyone has a monopoly on any constituency. The people of Kerala, who are politically aware, aren’t anyone’s captive force. A victory here will further strengthen the Left Democratic Front (LDF) government’s efforts to develop Kerala in such a manner that it gets global attention. What has been envisioned is a Kerala without homeless or unemployed people and one that excels financially, educationally, in the health sector and in industrial growth. Infrastructure development is a pre-requisite for this. And the all-round development of Kochi region is pivotal to attaining these goals.
