Opposition and Alliances

The Congress (UDF) will face stiff competition from the ruling Left Democratic Front (LDF) led by the CPI(M) and the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA). The electoral battle in Kerala is expected to be closely contested, with each party trying to secure a maximum number of seats.

The UDF, which includes the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) and the Kerala Congress (M), among others, is banking on the anti-incumbency factor against the LDF government. The Congress-led alliance aims to capitalize on various issues, including the alleged mismanagement of the COVID-19 pandemic and the economic slowdown.
