"We are sure that we will not get fewer than 100 seats out of 140. - N.K. Premachandran"

New Delhi, March 16

Revolutionary Socialist Party MP N.K. Premachandran on Monday expressed confidence in the victory of the United Democratic Front in Kerala in the upcoming Assembly elections. He exuded confidence in getting at least 100 out of 140 seats.

"We welcome the dates and the announcement of the Election Commission to have the elections in five states, including the state of Kerala. I hope that in the state of Kerala, the United Democratic Front led by the Congress will come back with an absolute majority. We are sure that we will not get fewer than 100 seats out of 140. We are well prepared. Everything is okay. There is no conflict," he said.

In Kerala, the main fight is between the Left Democratic Front (LDF) and the United Democratic Front (UDF) for 140 seats. Meanwhile, the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is also in the fray to compete against both alliances. BJP plans to contest around 100 seats in Kerala, while its allies Bharat Dharma Jana Sena (BDJS) and Twenty20 are expected to contest the remaining 40 seats as part of the alliance.

Meanwhile, the Election Commission of India (ECI) announced Assembly elections in Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Assam, West Bengal and Puducherry.

According to the schedule, Kerala and Assam will vote in a single phase on April 9, while Tamil Nadu will go to the polls on April 23. Voting in Puducherry will also take place on April 9. The polling in West Bengal will be conducted in two phases on April 23 and April 29.

The counting of votes for all four states and Puducherry will be held on May 4, the ECI announced.

The terms of the current assemblies are set to end on different dates: May 7 in West Bengal, May 10 in Tamil Nadu, May 20 in Assam, May 23 in Kerala, and June 15 in Puducherry.

Kerala politics is always so exciting! UDF vs LDF is the main event, but it's interesting to see BJP trying to make inroads. 100 seats is a massive prediction though. 🤔 Hope the election is fair and peaceful!

Confidence is good, but this sounds like overconfidence. The last election was very close. Claiming "no conflict" in the UDF alliance is a bit hard to believe. The real test will be on the ground with the voters.

As an observer, Kerala's model of development is often discussed. It will be fascinating to see which alliance's vision for the state's future resonates more with the people. The high voter turnout expected shows a healthy democracy.

All this talk of seats before the campaign even heats up! 😄 In Kerala, we vote based on local issues and the candidate's credibility in our constituency. The alliance matters, but the individual candidate matters more. Let the games begin!

Respectfully, such predictions set unrealistic expectations. It puts unnecessary pressure on the party workers. The focus should be on a positive agenda for Kerala's youth and economy, not just seat numbers. The EC has done a good job with the schedule.
