Ahead of the Keralam Assembly elections, Union Home Minister Amit Shah conducted a roadshow for Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) candidate KP Prakash Babu in the Beypore Assembly constituency. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, speaking a day earlier, expressed confidence that the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) will secure victory in the elections, scheduled for April 9. Modi accused the Left Democratic Front (LDF) and United Democratic Front (UDF) of spreading misinformation regarding various legislative issues, including the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) and the Uniform Civil Code (UCC). He emphasized the NDA's achievements, such as the enactment of a law providing 33 percent reservation for women in legislative bodies. The elections will see competition primarily between the NDA, led by the BJP, and the opposition alliances, LDF and UDF, with vote counting planned for May 4.
