Facing one of the toughest electoral battles since its inception four decades ago in Kerala, the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) has asked its mascot Rahul Gandhi, also a Member of Parliament from north Kerala’s Wayanad, to pitch his tent in the state and campaign vigorously to foil the Left’s bid to continue in power in the upcoming assembly elections, scheduled for April 6.
According to senior Congress leaders, the party feels that Gandhi’s presence will attract minority voters who shifted to the ruling Left Democratic Front (LDF) in a big way in the local body elections in December. That was a wake-up call for the party, which otherwise thought that it will almost automatically return to power, given the electoral pattern in the state, where voters have alternated between the two rival fronts.
To add to the party’s woes, at least four pre-poll surveys have given an edge to the ruling Left. But party watchers claim the situation is not that bleak for the Congress, and the euphoria generated by the Left’s belligerent public relations blitz need not reflect in ballots. But they admit early warnings have forced the party out of its slumber and manage issues such as internal factionalism.
