ALAPPUZHA: Opposition leader Ramesh Chennithala has said that Kerala will give a befitting reply to autocracy, pride and unilateralism. He also said that issues including Sabarimala will be discussed in the polls and response against anti-people measures, graft and nepotism will reflect in the polling percentage. “People has realised that the allegations raised by the opposition are true,” Chennithala said.

“A pro-UDF wave is lashing across the state. LDF will be swept away in that wave. BJP men won’t have even their address after the polls,” he added. When asked about the chief minister’s statement issued in the early morning, he said, “The atheistic chief minister is now seeking Ayappa’s blessings. This government which has received the curse of Ayappa will also suffer from the wrath of the people in this election.”
