PM Modi Predicts BJP Win in Kerala, Says People Have Made Up Their Mind to Show the Door to LDF

Thiruvananthapuram: Ahead of the Assembly Election 2026 in Kerala, Prime Minister Narendra Modi predicted that the BJP-NDA government will come to power. Stating the reason for this he said that people's faith in the NDA and the immense support from women is visible across the state.

Speaking at the occasion PM Modi said, "The Christian community is present in large numbers in the Northeast; except for one state, the NDA government is in power in 7 states of the Northeast, and we have accomplished what wasn't done there in the last 50-60 years. In Goa, the Christian community is decisive, and there has been a continuous BJP-NDA government. It is touching new heights of development. If an NDA government is formed in Keralam too, Keralam will attain new heights of development."

PM Modi continued to add, "It is our government that has provided 33% reservation for women in the Lok Sabha and state assemblies... Parliament is going to reconvene in three days. The law we have passed, which gives 33% reservation to women, should start benefiting from the 2029 Lok Sabha elections. There is a need to enact a law to ensure 33% participation of women in Parliament.''

''Just as Parliament passed the women's reservation bill by consensus, similarly, two tasks need to be done on the 16th-18th April: Kerala, Tamil Nadu, or other states that have done good work in population control—we want to firmly ensure in the law in Parliament this time that nowhere should the Lok Sabha seats be reduced... and second, the seats for women should increase as additional seats. So that our southern states get this huge benefit, we are calling a session for law amendment. We have called the Congress people for a meeting, we hope they will listen to us... It is necessary that this amendment passes by consensus...," he added.

PM Modi further said, "The Sabarimala Railway Project here can open up new possibilities in this region; it will enhance direct connectivity to Sabarimala, give a new momentum to local business, and open new avenues of employment for the youth, but the state government has kept this project hanging.''

''Thiruvalla is suffering because of this. When the BJP's double-engine government comes to power, all such obstacles will be removed—this is Modi's guarantee," he added.
