Kolkata: During his campaign trail for Kerala Assembly polls, Sreedharan expressed confidence that he is going to win the Palakkad assembly constituency. “I think the BJP has very good prospects of winning seats in Kerala. It may be an absolute majority or even it could have accessible number by which they will be the kingmaker,” said Sreedharan.

I will work to bring a transparent, efficient and corruption-free government,” said Sreedharan in responding to question about his role if NDA alliance is voted to power.

Today is the last day of campaigning for first phase of elections in West Bengal and Assam, both states that have seen a high-intensity battle for power. While the BJP raised the political heat in Bengal with rallies by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah among a few, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee pushed back with a focus on the “insider vs outsider” debate. In Assam, the BJP has promised implementation of CAA, which remains a contentious issue.
