Quick Glance: Can the BJP Make Inroads in the Southern Indian States of Tamil Nadu and Kerala?
- The BJP may increase its vote share in these states, but votes may not translate into seats in parliament.
- The BJP has had a poor electoral track record in Tamil Nadu and Kerala. Despite aggressively wooing Tamil voters, polls suggest that the party may not win seats in the parliaments of these states.
- In Tamil Nadu, the BJP is focusing on promoting Modi and a Tamil leader to attract young voters. In Kerala, the party is trying to court the support of the Christian community and showcase Modi's development strategy.
- Despite intense campaigning in both states, it is expected that the DMK-Congress alliance will sweep all 39 seats in Tamil Nadu and the Congress-led UDF will secure 17 out of 20 seats in Kerala. The BJP may only see an increase in its vote share without winning any seats.
