PM Modi 'Countdown has begun for LDF government in Kerala'

PM Modi 'Countdown has begun for LDF government in Kerala'Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday said that the countdown for removal of the LDF government has started and a BJP-led NDA will come to power in Kerala.

Speaking at a BJP-led NDA rally here, in Pathanamthitta district, Modi said that the saffron party workers in the state have signalled a strong mood in Kerala to bid farewell to the Left rule.

Elections to 140 Assembly seats will be held on April 9 in the



state.

In his address, the PM said that if the BJP comes to power in the state, it will ensure development in Kerala as it did in six out of the seven north-east states where it is in power and Goa, which have a significant Christian population.

He said that Kerala has great potential, yet continues to lag behind other states in the race for development.

Basic infrastructure was poor in Kerala’s rural areas as the LDF and UDF did not pay attention to it, he alleged.
