LDF bags 43 panchayats in Kozhikode
The Left Democratic Front (LDF) has won 43 out of the 70 grama panchayats in Kozhikode district by demonstrating an unquestionable supremacy in the majority of the rural areas. At the end of the fight on Wednesday, the United Democratic Front (UDF) had to be content with 27 seats after its strange coalitions and local tie-ups failed to make any significant advances against the ruling front.
Slight advantage
Though the LDF was fortunate to have 48 panchayats last time, it could not repeat the same magic because of the anti-incumbency factor and strong campaign by its political rivals. Meanwhile, the UDF had a slight advantage, improving from 22 panchayats to 27 in 2020.
RMPI proves its mettle again

Party puts up strong fight in LDF strongholds
Despite some unexpected setbacks, the Revolutionary Marxist Party of India (RMPI) has managed to prove its political significance again by putting up a strong fight against the Left Democratic Front (LDF) in the local body elections. The formation of ‘Janakeeya Munnani’, which also had the support of the United Democratic Front (UDF) leadership, helped it challenge politically strong rivals even in their strongholds.
The victory in Eramala panchayat was the most significant one for the new RMPI-UDF alliance this time.

Opinion | How Punjab farmer agitation was hijacked by their Left-leaning leaders
In my prime time show âAaj Ki Baatâ on Friday night, we showed how a handful of farmer leaders, with Leftist and anti-Modi leanings, have hijacked the farmersâ agitation in Delhi. These are the leaders who want a bitter confrontation with the Centre and are trying to stall negotiations at each and every step. Even on Friday, the Union Agriculture Minister said that the government was ready for talks, but the farmer leaders should come forward and tell the provisions of farm laws which they want to be amended. But the handful of farmer leaders decided not to respond and intensified the agitation. They have announced that they would block roads and railway tracks in the National Capital region and bring normal life to a standstill.
