Why Lok Sabha polls in Kerala have attracted national attention | Analysis
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 кві 2024
- The battle for the 20 Lok Sabha seats in Kerala, known for its bipolar politics, always choosing between the Congress-led United Front and the CPI(M)-led Left Front, has attracted national attention this time for a variety of reasons.
Firstly, as these two entities battle it out in Kerala this time, they have a seat-sharing arrangement elsewhere in the country as part of an anti-BJP platform called INDIA bloc. Both these alliances call for an end to the BJP rule at the Centre in favour of a secular, more democratic government which respects Indian federalism.
But their fight is far from friendly.
The second reason is the desperate attempt made by the BJP over the last few years to woo the church and leverage the anti-Muslim sentiments among a section of Christians by capitalising on the ‘love jihad’ bogey.
Yet another reason for the elections in Kerala drawing national attention is the slew of anti-Citizenship Amendment Act protests the State witnessed in the days before the announcement of the polls. The Left front was more articulate on the issue and held conventions across the State. The Congress came under attack for not including the subject even in its election manifesto.
We also look at a few key battles, in particular Thiruvananthapuram, and candidates to watch out for.

Within 5 years cpm will be disappear from India 😅😅😅
its been 10-20 years since we've been hearing that. Feudalism of the BJP, makes CPM look new age. Only when the former disappears will the latter.
No way, I think the hate towards bjp will slowly make people to lean more towards leftism.
@@TheGeorgeous Let that get into your teen brain that in last 15-20 years Cpim had got washed out from it's bastions like WB,Tripura. Also lost in it's stronghold constituencies like Vadakara,palakkad,attingal. See the reality pal😂
@@pandaZ3nope
It's other way around
@TheGeorgeous Im sorry we will not miss CPM like Naxalism is the type of things that CPI gave up
It is a dream of bjp to get one seat in Kerala
They rule INDIA for 2 consecutive terms with full majority with ZERO seat from kerala that us ENOUGH.
So its irrelevant either got seats or not......😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
they will increase vote share this time . I am not sure about seat but next time sure they will gain seat in lok sabha and cm election also
BJP had only 2 seats once in Parliament. Now they are 300+. Never Underestimate them.
NOT ONLY KERALA EVEN TAMIL NADU ALSO.
BJP 0 in Tamil Nadu.
Bjp 5 seat in tamilnadu
Hate has no fate in Kerala.
Keep loving your circumcised neighbors 😂
Hate of Hindus and BJP sadly has a place in Kerala.
In Europe hate also spreading😂😂 i think you need to look at Europe also then you will realise which is your enemy
Kerala is established based on hate. It's time to remove hate by Lotus. Lotus means symbol of peace
@@ajaypalvaiYes, we will cuz they (and everyone else) are our brothers. You all keep trying to divide humans based on religions.
Amar in up. Akbar in kerala. Antony in karnataka. Best Hollywood actor award winning going to ragul gandhi. Congress. Today he is in rammandir 😂
What's wrong in that?
Kerala is not going to give any seat for BJP. They will get Big ZERO😃
Do you even know BJP have 12% vote share in kerala
@@EinsteinkaPapa yes, they have and it just hovers around that for the last 10 years inspite of the huge money pumped in. Many of the bjp candidates have become crorepatis. That is the reason they take part in elections even though they lose the deposit money in most constituencies.
@@rajValath It is money.... also the RSS cadre.... Rss have 5000 offices in kerala, just second to Uttar pradesh..... Imagine the amount of hardwork RSS people are doing to curb the radical muslim and paving the path for BjP victory. Once the Bjp gets entry in Tamil nadu, then kerala and andhra will also be easy to conquer.
@@EinsteinkaPapa cadre number is the key. No of branches of shakha is irrelevant. So no comparison with UP or MP or Rajasthan. Kerala has some high voltage RSS trained far-right. But does not have people who considers BJP in the same league as congress. Such people in the north make the election results.
@@rajValath Don't worry bro.... Once RSS fights out the Communist ideology. BJP will make it's path in kerala. Also the brewing Ex-muslim movement in kerala and whole india will backfire the mass muslim votes.... Just 1 generation more, and radical islam will be dead and muslim people will also love india and nationalist BJP may win then.
CAA concept was first Mentioned in Parliament by Manmohan Singh, BJP just gave it a Name
Talking nonsense. There is no need of a law for this. India has been selectively giving citizenship to refugees.
Always support your claims with news cuttings. Otherwise what ever BJP claims is whatsapp stuff. Modi just said Manmohan want Muslims to get all divided property. So your claim is just the opposite that because Muslims ate not taken from other countries. 😋
@@ai-fg3kw Law targets Minorities from "Secular" Pakistan and "Secular" Bangladesh... Muslims from those countries have other Options like neighbours Iran/Afghanistan and Citizenship by Naturalisation in India
@@ccrp4788 now law is trying to target the minorities in "secular India". That is the whole issue. You explained the problem with caa and nrc. This will boomerang once. That is for sure..
@@ccrp4788 we don't care whether they have options. We follow our Constitution. Another thing: the logic of safe harbour for persecuted does not apply here. By logic, srilankan Tamils should be given assylum. Burmese persecuted people as well.
Non BJP state Kerala
BJ Party 00000 in Tamil Nadu and Kerala
Thank you for your detailed information
Kerala people opened the gate for the BJP. Definitely BJP is going to get 3 to 5 seats. If you want development for Kerala. people need BJP. Communist parties, Congress stopping the growth of Kerala. Rahul electing again waste. He did nothing for wayanad constituency.
Very rightly said, "It is the people who should bring in the change". I am from Trivandrum and have always been a traditional Congress voter. I voted for Tharoor twice of the three times he was elected. I personally was swayed by his charisma little realising that he gives nothing in return to the electorate. He represented Trivandrum, my constituency for 3 terms and all he has to show as development are a few bus stops and flood lights at junctions that prominently display his name. I have decided and so have my family... Our votes will bebfor BJP. They are the party that can save this nation from the clutches of the anti-national cabal who have taken it on them to ensure that voters are wooed with freebies. Hearken O brothers and sisters of my country "There is nothing as a free lunch when it comes to politics". Remember my words.... If INDIA alliance comes to power, they will TAX the AAM AADMI like us. Above all, I consider myself a patriot. I will never sell my country to these bunch of jokers
😂😂
Our state is already better than your north indian states... So please concentrate on there
@@darkroomentertainment5882lol Central govt is building a brand new Kollam railway station compared to the Muskesh's dilapidated ksrtc bus stand. I will vote for infrastructure development.
Down down BJP
A v good narration. Thank you ❤
If BJP wins in Kerala Mody's dream of Kerala becoming Somalia will come true.😂
Is it already not , people fleeing state to find employment elsewhere😮 and state government going around with begging bowl
Exodus of youngsters is not as highin Kerala as elsewhere and that too because of poor employment opportunities in India and we are not begging to Centre but demaning share of revenues which are rightfully ours@@ajaypalvai
@@ajaypalvai read some news apart from whatsapp. Quote "There has been a significant pattern shift in migration of Indian workers to the six Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries - Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates - with Kerala, typically the biggest contributor of blue-collar workers, seeing a 90 per cent drop. The vacuum so caused has been filled by Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, which have emerged as top contributors, shows a study by UAE-based organisation, Huntr.
Overall, there has been a 50 per cent increase in migration of blue-collar Indian workers to the GCC countries in first seven months of 2023. The top five states by the number of workers sent to GCC, according to the Huntr study, have been Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Kerala, West Bengal, and Tamil Nadu. And the preferred destinations for labour migration remain Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, and Oman. "
Mallus go all across the world. Have you heard that feudal society bimaru states and Bengalis - even though not feudal - and Assamese are over 30 lakh here in kerala. Coz they get 1000 rs a day against their 400-500 rupees.
People of Kerala are going to see one tremendous change in the state from the clutch of LDF as well as UDF. Jai Hind. Bande Mataram b
😅😅😅yes big zero for bjp
That will never happen.

You have copy pasted it in many videos.
Avan pala roopathilum bhaavathilum varum enna paranjekkunne :)
Which means you received few amount from bjp which congress didn't but remember dictator rise will be more trouble for generation.
Then you have to vote fo nota!!!!
BJP IT cell spotted 😂
This time LDF -10 , UDF -10 .
NDA will get 20 eggs out of 20 seats 😂
Good information
Better rename your paper’s name to The Anti Hindu or still better The Anti National
Mallus think that by not giving one seat to BJP they are smart. They don't realise that they are exposing their stupidity by voting for the same parties, alternatively who have brought Kerala to radicalism and bankruptcy
Our Debt is not even in the top 10 among other indian states... What is the debt of central compared to the congress government? It is more than 10× times higher...... And the audacity of a BJP supporter to talk about radicalism of other parties is the irony of the decade😂
@@darkroomentertainment5882 Which planet are you from??
So much of ignorance
It seems Mallus don't want so-called Gujarat model. BTW, Gujarat never came in the top five list of Modi's Niti Ayog. The ones who came were Kerala, TN, Telengana, Himachal for the last four years. :)
@@darkroomentertainment5882Comunist Kerala don't even come near the cabinet of Modi. Imagine Pinarayi and his team as India's central ministers 😂.
@@longerodds5077 you must be eating dung
Who is the CM of Kerala? Whose Government first came to Kerala ? Who was the longest ruled CM of Kerala? Who was the opposition leader of Kerala? To these and such types one cannot give the answer without mentioning party CPIM. The present all disclosures for the subject discussion were the resilt of it's fight at the court.
Peenarayi vijayan, communist, it's ek nayanar, oomen chandi and peenarayi vijayan
Not only that, if CPIM fails to get 11 wins it will loose it's national party status.
The so called cal
Cong and lefts in kerala are equally guilty of no alliance to resist bjp in kerala.rather mudslinging was high than before.in bengal,cong posted a dist level leader to tread at his will with left.cong did a great blunder not to pursue with tmc also.
We are proud thay we have not sent a single CHANAKAM ( KOHINOOR) to LokSabha
In kerala
Cong+ : 20 seat
CPM : 0
BJP :0 0
BJP has 2 seats even though 0 0. Good sarcasm. We don't care how the other two parties share the seats. he he :)
You dream.. it is free.
Kerala 99.99% Literacy rate and 99% jihadi recruitment rate all over India , sometimes ago it became a bankrupt state also .
Cry mote with your fake brainwashed data from whatsapp university!!!
We know your source of this fake information! Can you prove any of your claim?? Challenge
BJP,There is no way to get seats in KERALA.
Bjp silently laughing with 12% vote share.
Everyone knows Kerala is irrelevant and useless in national politics😂.
@@EinsteinkaPaparemain 88% loudly laughing 3024 too
BJ party is a big joke 😂
@@Vihaan.tharkuvosky They are always laughing bro. They don't know that their dumb communist state is bankrupt, Begging extra money from Centre govt. Also most ISIS recruits are from kerala( in india) , what an achievement. 😂
Rahul lost his seat in Kerela, so again he is going to stand in UP.
It seems you are reading past articles from your leftist paper. No on the ground understanding and very superficial reporting without understanding the pulse of the people. Kuracchu okkae veyil kondu, podiyum adicchu venam report cheyyan. Hopefully you people will get out of you AC rooms. Or else, The Hindu will become irrelevant like the New York Times or Wall Street Journal...

Any chance for BJP to win even single seat??? May be Thiruvananthapuram they can win.
THIS ELECTION KERALA AND TAMIL NADU GOING TO GIVE DIFFERENT RESULTS PRANAI VIJAYAN AND SHALIN WILL SHAK FROM THEIR POSTS. PEOPLE ARE GOING TO TEACH GOOD LESSONS TO BOTH CMS
👍
The fact is that the LDF is giving a best ruling and development than the central government, so definitely Kerala election will be the attraction of all states. LDF shall live in Karala forever.
LONG LIVE CONGRESS ! SAVE DEMOCRACY 😊
Leftist and liberal people are against democracy that's why whole world is moving towards right
The national attraction is mainly due to the Rahul contesting in Wayanad, and a direct fight between Congress and CPM alliance, as BJP does not much exist in Kerala, with zero seats in 2019, and will not be different in 2024!
I love Kerala state, state of peace ❤❤❤
BJP's communal and hate Politics will never works in kerala .
Yes only Congress- Communitst tolerated terrorism of PFI only works in Kerala. Shame they couldn't defend that christian lecturer whose hand got chopped off in the college by PFI activists !!. Hatred perpetrated by radical Islamic activists can and should be tolerated !!!. What a shame that you don't see the truth !!!.
What about IUML and PFI?? NOT COMMUNAL
People of Abrahamic religions & oppotunistic leftists are not getting sleep becsuse of modi
Are you getting good sleep?
If yes, then sleep nicely
Hindus and Christian facing same problem in Kerala...so the people of kerala must vote for BJP ONLY 🪷🪷🪷🙏

We keralites never look upon religions

Harmony?? I know the ground reality... don't teach me..ok

The Hindu - Chinese mouthpiece.....What a shame!
The hindu = anti india,anti Hindu, anti bjp .
Pro dmk ,congress communist,pro islamist propaganda
Quote "The government on Friday said that China continues to occupy approximately 38,000 square km of Indian territory in Ladakh for the last six decades.
In a written response in Lok Sabha, minister of state for external affairs V Muraleedharan also said that Centre has taken note of the "illegal" bridge being constructed by China on Pangong lake in Ladakh. :)

Ragul doing divide and rule policy in india. Shame to congress

What about unemployment, Inflation, which is going higher and higher
No bjp MLA no bjp MP HERE GODS OWN COUNTRY
Which God? Hindus or muslim? Do you want mini Pakistan?
Kerala is no more God own country but a Jihad own country
No progress no development no God's either.....only beg the Centre for sops and then keep cribbing when they whip your backsides!
Which God ? Demographics change going on in kerela , Hindu population continuously decreasing in kerela
Gods own country people born to serve Middle Eastern. Therefore NO BJP
Modi has lost his eligible to contest in the Election as he repeatedly engages in hate speech and giving false statements. He doesn't speak like a two-time prime minister of India.
On behalf of RSS_BJP he promotes myths against the actual facts of Indian Reality. He thus lowers himself as the PM of the biggest Democratic Nation.
RSS_BJP uses him adding shame to the nation.
We the People of India, it is the time to decide on the the work of RSS_BJP which constantly attempts to create discrimination among the Hindus using sanadana varnashrama mindset and among us the Indians in the name religion using names of gods Rama and Krishna and hanuman.
Above all RSS_BJP is attempting to replace Dr Ambedkar by Ramnath Govinth. That is to rewrite the Constitution of India by introducing various elements contradictory to the values of Indian Constitution like one nation one election which eventually leads to destroy democracy paving way for Autocracy.
We the People of India, Let's Awake!
Let us Save India.

Kerala Christians are the most informed common folks here unlike poor Bengalis who may give Modi 22 seat from the last 18. The leader Mamata - Modi in saree - is also a reason for the increase. Mallus know what happened to Graham Steins, his daughters and several similar cases. Here they are not trapped in Whatsapp university.They know about Manipur - I mean what is more than the ethnic shxt as per BJP propaganda. So...
@@rajValathfirst go and educate yourself was Graham stain a gud man??? And he was massacred by bajrang dal not RSS or bjp atleast educate atleast go and read the ideology of both organisation instead of spreading lies bajaranj dal is against love jihadie and convertion and graham staines was here for converting poor people and not helping them,and people with brain understand that and Christian aren't Minority in Manipur and ask those Christian stop voting for bjp then you bark ,the people of Manipur of clearly know what happening in Manipur not unlike you with lack of knowledge ,more than 1000 died between 2002- 2014 but to NVR say that when congress was ruling .

Bjp has to win and will in Kerala..
Kerala is a regressive state ruled by commis & congis .. population of non hindus is 40%and thats why bjp finds it difficult.
If not controlled kerala will become a syria..!
Elect BJP
Kerala stands ahead above all other states in Every parameter regarding human development index. The WhatsApp University professors are busy defaming the people of Kerala State.
Title Correction : Nationally Manufactured misinformation* and not attention.
Kerala will vote as it always has, and BJP will see its vote share erode from the 13% it worked hard to achieve last time.
Bjp is not going to win in Kerala,but its share increase to 18 percent
The Hindu newspaper actually anti-Hindu paper.
Pm modi ❤

It is the first communist led state came into in world itself thru election. In a democractic way. So congress and bjp go back. Communist shows the dignity of labour as well humans
Vote for congress
