was knocked to the ground by certain unruly elements who were angered by his active connivance with the Congress led government in Kerala to try and introduce large scale privatization of university education including opening the way for foreign funded education.
Ever since, he has been spewing vitriol against the left front for one reason or the other - most of them figments of his imagination.
Here, he has indulged in elaborate make believe word play to try and convince himself that the left front is fighting a desperate battle to win in the Kerala assembly elections (when the truth is that they are tipped by pollsters to win above 80 seats in the 140 seat assembly, if not much more).
However, two of the statements he has made in this write up ring very very true. And these are :
1. The Bharatiya Janata Party blitzkrieg is reaching unprecedented proportions in Kerala (Sreenivasan should have been more blunt by stating the truth : that the BJP has been spending immensely more than either the LDF or the UDF in Kerala in pursuit of that ever distant 1 seat out of 140!)
2. Most names of BJP leaders are of no consequence to Kerala voters.
3. Those BJP leaders are not even household names and their Hindi speeches are alien to them (someone really really dumb in the Kerala BJP has apparently advised the party leadership that it would be ok to bray out loud in the Hindi language in Kerala and expect to influence voters!)
Completely baseless article. Omanchandy is not an indispensable person in Kerala politics. What counts in Kerala is whether one is corrupt or not while holding public office. LDF is no mean better, but they are likely to get the advantage of not being in power. BJP will not be a big winner but will be the spoiler for sure. It might as well help UDF to come back into power and that is democracy.
the cpm victory will bring out more violence in the state with the cadres having a free for all with teh blessings of the leadership from north kerala .........beware and be aware .it will be worse than chandys corruption than to live in fear of these cpm partymen ................ KERALITES SHOULD HAVE A WISE DECISION FOR THE PEACEFUL ATMOSPHERE OF THE STATE

Till now it was TINA factor in Kerala(either UDF or LDF). This time around they have a third choice,viz;NDA.

And that third choice is spending much more than either the LDF or the UDF and yet is not certain whether they will win even 1 seat out of 140 !

Unfortunately, the *change* that you refer to (the BJP) is no change at all.
It is by now certain that they are in secret alliance with the Congress, the *churxch* and the Muxlim League to share the spoils by ganging up against the left front !
