The 2019 Indian general election was held in Kerala on 23 April 2019 to constitute the 17th Lok Sabha. [3]

Contents

Indian National Congress led United Progressive Alliance swept 19 out of 20 seats in the state. Bharatiya Janata Party led National Democratic Alliance which formed government at center couldn't win any seats but gathered around 15% vote share. The ruling Left Democratic Front was decimated in the elections with just one seat.

The state witnessed elections in the backdrop of Sabarimala Protests, UPA's PM candidate contesting from state, demonetisation, Goods and Services Tax implementation and SNDP Yogam forging electoral alliance with Bharatiya Janata Party through Bharath Dharma Jana Sena. [4]

Despite no National Democratic Alliance winners from the state, it got one ministerial berth in Second Modi ministry through V. Muraleedharan a Member of Parliament, Rajya Sabha.

Alliances and parties

The key alliances that fought for representation of Lok Sabha seats in Kerala are the UDF which is the Kerala state legislative alliance aligned with the UPA at the national level and the LDF comprising primarily the CPI(M) and the CPI. [5] [6] National Democratic Alliance (NDA), which had not won any seat in the state, placed candidates in all constituencies. A new force in the election is the Left United Front. [7]
