This reflects ongoing political tensions and internal power dynamics within Kerala's coalition politics.
An organised attempt is under way to weaken the Left Democratic Front (LDF), Communist Party of India (CPI) national executive member K.P. Rajendran alleged on Sunday, accusing anti-Left forces and sections of the right-wing media of working together against the alliance.
Mr. Rajendran was inaugurating a two-day district-level party school organised by the CPI at the Teachers’ House Hall in Veliyannur, Thrissur. He said party workers should not fall into “a trap laid by opponents of the LDF.”
“An electoral defeat is not the end of anything,” he said, adding that the Left would return to the parliamentary arena with greater strength. He criticised those “attempting to deliver sweeping verdicts on the future of the Left based on a temporary electoral setback.”
