The BJP was able to set the agenda for the Lok Sabha polls in Kerala, party national executive committee member P.K. Krishnadas has claimed.
Opening a meeting to analyse the BJP’s performance in the general elections in the Kozhikode seat here on Saturday, he said that both the Left Democratic Front and the United Democratic Front were forced to take up the Sabarimala issue after the BJP raised it during the campaign. This led to a consolidation of Hindu votes and the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) could emerge as a force to reckon with in Kerala politics dominated so far by two fronts.
