RJD’s Unrest within LDF: Long-standing Grievances Come to Fore

RJD Kerala State president M.V. Shreyams Kumar’s recent outcry against the Left Democratic Front (LDF) in Kerala exposes simmering discontent within the coalition. The party alleges a lack of recognition and fair treatment, citing instances where their concerns were overlooked by the CPI(M), the leading party in the LDF.

Kumar specifically points out the recent allocation of a Rajya Sabha seat to another party, which RJD claims was rightfully theirs. Furthermore, the denial of a Lok Sabha seat and a Cabinet berth adds to their dissatisfaction, indicating deeper fissures within the alliance. As tensions escalate, the LDF faces a challenge in maintaining unity amidst internal dissent from its coalition partners.
