He emphasized that the outcome breaks long-standing political patterns and reflects a clear rejection of old electoral arithmetic, with the UDF wave cutting across regions and communities.
The Congress leader highlighted that this victory belongs to the youth, women, farmers, and working-class people, who united beyond divisions of caste, class, and geography. According to him, the broad-based support shows growing demand for change and a governance model that listens to people’s concerns and aspirations
. He credited the success to the leadership of Mallikarjun Kharge, President of the Indian National Congress, and Rahul Gandhi, Leader of Opposition, whose guidance and campaign strategy played a crucial role in mobilizing support across Kerala.
Calling the mandate a “massive responsibility,” Venugopal assured that the UDF will deliver a pro-people, welfare-oriented government focused on inclusive development, social harmony, and transparent governance. He pledged that the alliance would work tirelessly to exceed public expectations and bring transformative change to Kerala.
