In a major political development from Kerala, the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) has taken a strong early lead in around 80 out of 140 Assembly seats, according to initial counting trends. The numbers संकेत a possible सत्ता परिवर्तन as the opposition alliance looks set to cross the majority mark comfortably.
The counting of votes began early Monday morning across the state amid tight security and high political stakes. From the very first rounds, the UDF showed clear momentum, gaining leads across key constituencies and putting pressure on the ruling Left Democratic Front (LDF).
The ruling front, led by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, is facing a tough challenge as trends suggest significant anti-incumbency in several regions. While the LDF continues to hold ground in select pockets, it is trailing behind the UDF in a majority of constituencies as per the latest updates.
Political observers note that if the UDF maintains its lead in around 80 seats, it will comfortably cross the halfway mark of 71 and form the next government. However, officials caution that trends may fluctuate as counting progresses through multiple rounds.
All eyes are now on the final results expected later in the day, which will decide whether Kerala witnesses a shift in power or a late comeback by the ruling alliance.
