Senior Congress leader Shashi Tharoor is optimistic about the United Democratic Front’s (UDF) success in the upcoming Kerala elections. Tharoor predicts a clear win for the UDF, emphasizing widespread support for change in the state during his campaign observations.
Tharoor dismisses the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) impact in Kerala, highlighting the BJP’s minimal presence and insignificance in state governance. He urges voters to focus on the UDF for effective governance rather than wasting votes on the BJP.
Addressing challenges faced by the ruling party, Tharoor holds the incumbents responsible for issues like the Wayanad disaster. He emphasizes the opposition’s role in assisting disaster victims while underscoring the ruling government’s accountability.
Tharoor critiques Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘One Nation, One Election’ proposal, citing its impracticality in India’s parliamentary system. He stresses the need to prioritize peace in handling the West Asia conflict and advocates for India to play a stronger role in promoting peace in the region.
