Sree Narayana Dharma Paripalana (SNDP) Yogam general secretary Vellappally Natesan on Sunday said he hoped the Left Democratic Front (LDF) would retain power in Kerala while also predicting that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) would open its account in the Assembly this time.
Addressing a press conference here, Mr. Natesan said exit polls had only indicated a marginal edge for the United Democratic Front (UDF) and had not fully accounted for the BJP factor.
