Thiruvananthapuram: Senior Congress leader VD Satheesan on Monday attributed the Congress-led UDF’s lead in the Keralam Assembly polls to widespread anti-incumbency sentiments.
“There was anti-incumbency. We discussed a new era for future Keralam. We had credibility among the people. I had earlier said that 10 ministers will lose, and that is what happened,” Satheesan said, highlighting the successful prediction and the public’s shift in favor of UDF.
Speaking to ANI, he expressed gratitude to the people of Keralam for their support and credited the UDF leaders and workers for the victory. ” We are grateful to the people of Keralam. I dedicate this victory to the UDF leaders and workers.
Satheesan also said that he has delivered on his promise to bring UDF back in power.
Satheesan acknowledged the efforts of top Congress leaders, including Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi, who campaigned vigorously across the state.
“Thanks to the people who gave a resounding victory to Team UDF. Gratitude to Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi, and others who carried out a strong campaign across Keralam. When I assumed office as the Leader of the Opposition, I had promised to bring the UDF back with a brilliant victory in Keralam. I have been able to keep that promise,” Satheesan said while addressing a press conference here.
