Kerala New LDF Government Cabinet Ministers List 2016

"LDF will come and set right everything"..!This was the slogan of the Left Democratic Front in Kerala while campaigning for the 2016 state Assembly Elections. Now LDF has come to power in Kerala with a thumping verdict of the Kerala voters. Everything is ready in Kerala to welcome the New Chief Minister and the Council of Ministers. People are keeping all hopes on this government led by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and watching whether the Chief minister and his team of ministers would fulfill this slogan and 'set right' everything...!.

It is a proven fact that many Left Leaders who still adhere to some values and principles keep away from corruptions. But the common people are apprehensive about their violent nature and the leaders support for the atrocities carried out by their party activists and other workers. The attack on the shop owner by his workers immediately after the counting of votes is one of the latest examples of the high-handedness of the workers affiliated to the left parties.


The press statement given by the C M designate Pinarayi Vijayan on the eve of the swearing-in day today was very promising and lifting the spirits of all the people of Kerala. He stressed that the upcoming new government will be a government of all the people of the state above political or communal lines. He also warned the people to be cautious of anyone who may approach the public saying that he/she is an associate of the Chief minister. (It was very surprising and unfortunate that none of the journalists of Kerala showed minimum courtesy to thank the CM designate for the sweet he distributed or to wish him 'Birthday Greetings'..!).

The lessons to learn from the Indian Assembly Elections, 2012. Is Rahul Gandhi Responsible for the defeat...?

Now the assembly Elections for the five Indian states are over and their results are also officially declared. In all the cases, the real results were very much a surprise for both the winners and the losers....! All the exit poll and post poll surveys and opinions were proven to be wrong...! The mandate of the voters were beyond the expectations of any party or the contestants...!

Though Mr Rahul Gandhi accepted responsibility for the poor performance of the Congress Party in UP, for which he campaigned and traveled day and night extensively for many months, forgoing food and sleep, he is not at all to be blamed for the poor show of the grand old party in UP.

In-fact political analysts, think-tanks and observers feel and believe that it is only because of the effort of Mr Rahul Gandhi, Congress could improve its number of seats in UP in the just concluded election, than the number won in 2007...! Had Rahul not entered in the campaign and worked as he did, Congress would have got no seats in UP....!

There are many factors that distanced the voters of the states with the oldest political party which they were adopting for many years. May be the dirty 'caste feeling' also have played some role. The different statements made by different Congress leaders have surely harmed the party. The open challenge declared by Central Minister Mr Salman Khurshid on the Chief Election Commission may also have injured the party, no doubt...!

The frequently breaking relationships of the UPA's alliance parties, like Mamata Banerjee's TMC and Sharad Pawars's NCP with the Congress party, has also vexed a section of the voters to some extend, which is also a major reason for the great fall of the grand old party of India...!

Congress voters in the country are not in a mood to accept the 'responsibility' of Mr Rahul Gandhi or are not ready to digest if anyone blames him responsible for the defeat of the party in the Assembly Elections 2012.
