JD(S) leader MP Veerendrakumar’s statement that his splinter party is allying with the UDF due to lack of democracy in the LDF is logical. For the CPI in Kerala, which had once stoutly opposed Mr Pinarayi Vijayan’s methods of controlling the Left Front, flaying Mr Veerendrakumar for his decision is nothing out of the ordinary. It was the CPI that had earlier openly accused the CPI(Marxists) of making the LDF undemocratic. It had flayed the Marxists then as well.
Nevertheless, one thing Mr Veerendrakumar need not worry about is seat-sharing as his splinter party is likely to win a sure number of seats in the next Assembly election when the LDF tumbles.
