Kerala Assembly Election 2026 Polling date: The results of 2026 Kerala elections will be announced on May 4, 2026. NEW DELHI: The Kerala story is not the same this time. As the state prepares for polling tomorrow (April 9) for 140 assembly seats, it is no longer the old “every five years, change the government” story. The Left Democratic Front (LDF) is chasing a rare third straight term under chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan, while the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) pushes to reclaim power.Here are top 5 factors to look out for that might decide the May 4 verdict:Follow full coverage of assembly elections 20261. The Vijayan factor CM Pinarayi Vijayan is looking to make a record with third consecutive term, but after 10 years in power, the road is far from smooth.    Watch Kerala Elections 2026: Big Battles, Key Seats and Heavyweight Candidates to Watch Vijayan remains the LDF’s biggest asset. Welfare schemes, including higher social security pensions, still resonate strongly. But there is also visible fatigue after a decade in office. The United Democratic Front (UDF) is pushing the anti-incumbency narrative while claiming that the governance has slowed and debt has risen in the last 10 years.2. Development: Promise vs pushbackBig-ticket infrastructure is a key poll issue for Kerala this time. The controversial SilverLine project being shelved and replaced with a toned-down alternative has left mixed signals. While the LDF talks development, the UDF, with leaders like VD Satheesan and Shashi Tharoor, is tapping into concerns over land and execution.   3. BJP’s growing footprintThe BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is no longer just a fringe player this time. Suresh Gopi’s Lok Sabha win and recent Thiruvananthapuram corporation win has given the party a momentum. Even if it doesn’t win many seats, it can cut into votes and turn contests into three-way fights.   4. Jobs and ‘brain drain’Young voters are looking beyond ideology. With many leaving Kerala for jobs abroad, employment has become a key issue. The UDF has sought to capitalise on this by foregrounding employment, entrepreneurship and investment in its campaign. For first-time voters especially, ideological loyalties are weaker than economic aspirations, making this a crucial swing factor.   5. Community equationsKerala’s elections are often decided by small shifts in key communities. In the state, the arithmetic of the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) and various Kerala Congress factions (representing the Christian heartland) usually decides the winner.The LDF has made significant inroads into the Christian vote bank through its alliance with Kerala Congress (M). However, the UDF is fighting to reclaim this territory by highlighting central-state tensions and “secular fabric” concerns.Issues ranging from the Waqf Board debates to international conflicts, including ongoing Middle East tensions, often resonate deeply in Kerala’s local booths, forcing all three fronts to tread carefully on communal and religious sentiments. Apart from this, issues like entry of women in Sabarimala temple continue to carry political weight. Alongside, controversies such as gold smuggling and related allegations have been used by the opposition to question the government’s credibility and governance record. While the LDF has pushed back strongly, these issues add another layer to voter sentiment.This single-phase election in Kerala could go down to the wire. Will Vijayan make history or the UDF make a comeback? Will the BJP make a dent this time?

File photo NEW DELHI: Srinagar police have busted yet another Al-Falah type, multi-state network of Lashkar e Taiba in a painstaking, month-long investigation launched after the arrest of two Pakistani terrorists in March for allegedly receiving, guiding and arranging logistics for foreign terrorists infiltrated into J&K, which threw up a network of overground workers (OGW) not just in Kashmir but in other states like Haryana and Rajasthan.Abdullah @ Abu Hurrera @ Ahmed, a resident of Kasur in Pakistan’s Punjab who infiltrated via Gurez in 2010, and Mohd Usman @ Khubaib, who hails from Lahore and had crossed over to Baramulla in 2017, were apprehended a month back, based on human and technical intelligence, from Malerkotla, Punjab. Their interrogation revealed a network of OGWs that Hurrera had created over the last 16 years in south Kashmir and Usman since 2017 in Baramulla, and which was now being expanded to include towns in Haryana and Rajasthan, particularly those with a large concentration of seminaries with suspected connections to Pakistan and LeT. Hurrera and Usman, both A-plus category terrorists who have handled and commanded around 40 foreign terrorists in J&K over the years and were working together since 2023, had travelled to Nuh and Mewat, via Delhi, at different times.Searches across 19 locations in J&K, Rajasthan and Haryana so far have led to the detention or arrest of six OGWs in Haryana, four in Rajasthan and over a dozen in J&K. Sources said the purpose of the multi-state module was to create an LeT network outside of J&K with the help of Pakistani and LeT contacts; and use it to set up hideouts for LeT terrorists and eventually facilitate their exit from India with the help of forged documents arranged by the local OGW network. At least one Pakistani terrorist, Khargosh, is said to have escaped from Rajasthan, using forged identity and travel documents.The probe also revealed the funding and financial pattern of LeT.More arrests may follow in the days to come, with investigators not ruling out footprints in more states.
