BJP Created History: The Kerala Story!!

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has always faced a tough battle in Kerala, a state that has repeatedly turned away from the party in Lok Sabha elections. But everything changed dramatically when Suresh Gopi, a beloved national award-winning actor, achieved a stunning victory. He won the Thrissur Lok Sabha seat, giving the BJP its first-ever triumph in Kerala.

Suresh Gopi’s Journey to Victory

Suresh Gopi faced formidable opponents in this election. He competed against VS Sunilkumar from the Communist Party of India (Marxist) and K Muraleedharan from the Congress. Despite the challenging competition, Gopi secured the seat by a margin of 74,686 votes.

In the previous Lok Sabha election in 2019, Gopi contested the same seat but finished third, trailing behind Congress’ TN Prathapan by 1.2 lakh votes. Similarly, in the 2021 Thrissur Assembly constituency election, Gopi again finished third, losing by less than 4,000 votes. These repeated attempts and his persistence in the Rajya Sabha from 2016 to 2022 finally paid off, as he gained the trust and support of the Thrissur electorate.

Why has the BJP never won in Kerala until now?

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has faced numerous challenges in Kerala, preventing it from winning any Lok Sabha seats in the state until the recent victory by Suresh Gopi in Thrissur. Understanding these barriers provides insight into the political dynamics of Kerala.

Strong Presence of Regional Parties

Kerala’s political landscape has been dominated by two major coalitions: the Left Democratic Front (LDF), led by the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPI(M)), and the United Democratic Front (UDF), led by the Indian National Congress. These alliances have deep-rooted connections and loyal voter bases, making it difficult for a third party like the BJP to gain traction.

Secular and Pluralistic Society

Kerala’s society is known for its secularism and pluralism. The state’s electorate comprises significant Muslim and Christian populations, along with Hindus. The BJP’s perceived focus on Hindutva politics often clashes with Kerala’s secular ethos, resulting in resistance from a substantial portion of the electorate.

Historical Context and Political Culture

Kerala’s political culture has traditionally leaned towards leftist and centrist ideologies. The state’s history of social reforms and strong labor movements has ingrained a preference for parties like the CPI(M) and Congress, which are perceived as champions of social justice and welfare.

Social Welfare and Development Policies

Both the UDF and LDF have implemented extensive social welfare and development programs in Kerala. These initiatives have earned them substantial voter loyalty.

Lack of Strong Local Leadership

Another significant factor has been the absence of strong and influential local leaders within the BJP who can resonate with Kerala’s voters. While the party has national leaders with widespread appeal, the lack of charismatic local figure in kerala has hindered its ability to establish a foothold in Kerala’s politics.

Significance of Suresh Gopi’s Victory in Kerala

First Lok Sabha Seat in Kerala

Suresh Gopi’s win marks the BJP’s first-ever Lok Sabha seat in Kerala, a state where the party has historically struggled. This victory breaks a long-standing trend and signals the BJP’s potential to expand its influence in a region that has been resistant to its ideology.

Challenge to Dominant Coalitions in Kerala

Kerala’s political arena has been dominated by two major coalitions: the United Democratic Front (UDF) and the Left Democratic Front (LDF). Suresh Gopi’s victory represents a challenge to this duopoly, indicating that voters are open to considering alternatives.

Growing Support Base

The BJP’s increased vote share and Suresh Gopi’s win suggest a growing support base for the party in Kerala. This shift could lead to more competitive elections in the future and potentially disrupt the existing political balance.

Impact on Future Elections

Strategic Momentum

This victory provides the BJP with strategic momentum heading into future elections. It serves as a morale booster for the party’s cadre in Kerala and could encourage more vigorous campaigning and recruitment of local leaders.

Strengthening National Presence

Suresh Gopi’s victory contributes to the BJP’s goal of expanding its national footprint. Securing a seat in Kerala enhances the party’s representation in the Lok Sabha, contributing to its overall strength and influence in national politics.

Broadening Electoral Base

This win helps the BJP to broaden its electoral base, showcasing its ability to win seats in states with different socio-political contexts. It underscores the party’s efforts to become a truly pan-Indian political force.

Conclusion

Suresh Gopi’s victory in Thrissur is a landmark achievement for the BJP in Kerala. It signifies a historic breakthrough, challenges the dominance of existing political coalitions, and provides strategic momentum for future elections. This win underscores the importance of addressing local issues and demonstrates the BJP’s growing appeal in diverse regions. Ultimately, it marks a significant step in the BJP’s journey towards expanding its influence and becoming a more inclusive national party.
