Kerala Assembly Election 2026: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will launch a massive two-day election campaign for the upcoming Kerala Assembly elections. During this time, he will try to provide momentum to the United Democratic Front (UDF) workers with major public welfare guarantees and the claim of winning 100 seats in the 140-member assembly.
Gandhi’s day will begin with an important meeting here with Kerala Congress leaders to finalize the election strategy, after which he will leave for the politically crucial Central Kerala region.
The leader of the opposition in the Lok Sabha will address public rallies in Adoor and Pathanamthitta before reaching Puthuppalli, where he will hold a rally and road show. He will also attend a nukkad sabha (corner reception) at Kanjikuzhi and conclude the day-long election program with a rally at Athirampuzha. As part of the day-long programme, Congress leaders will visit five important assembly seats in Central Kerala.
On the second day of his visit (Tuesday), the former Wayanad MP will focus his attention on North Kerala, where he will visit six assembly constituencies. During this time, Congress General Secretary KC Venugopal and other senior state leaders will also be present with him. He plans to hold two major road shows in this area.
During the election campaign, Gandhi and the UDF will place heavy emphasis on their election promises, particularly the guarantee of free bus travel for women and Rs 3,000 monthly assistance for senior citizens.
Party leaders said that Gandhi will visit a total of 30 assembly constituencies in the central and southern regions, along with which many road shows will also be included. This shows the preparation on the ground of the opposition alliance.
The Congress-led UDF, which has entered the elections as a united front, seems quite confident of returning to power. Senior leaders of the state have claimed that the public response during the election campaign indicates that the alliance is poised to register a massive victory in the state, crossing the 100-seat mark.
