The 2024 general election results in Kerala presents distinct challenges for all three major political fronts. It's intriguing how their fortunes have reversed since the 2021 assembly polls: the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPI(M))-led Left Democratic Front (LDF) now finds itself in a precarious situation; the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) radiates confidence; and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) emerges as a significant topic of discussion. It will be interesting to see the trajectory in which Kerala’s politics will move from this juncture, the 2026 elections in Kerala. In 2019, the UDF swept the election, but in 2021, the LDF achieved a thumping majority. In this scenario, the 2026 election seems unpredictable.
