Kerala Assembly polls 2026: Congress MP Shashi Tharoor endorses young candidates

Palakkad (Keralam): Congress MP Shashi Tharoor said, "We have to see a change. There's been a very, very disappointing performance by the previous MLA, who was a minister. Every project that he has brought to this constituency has been a failure of no benefit to anybody. We need a young, dynamic representative who will transform the face of Chittoor, and that's what we've got: an outstanding young candidate. Across Kerala, we are seeing a wave in favour of the UDF. People are tired of the failures of the LDF government. Ten years of disappointment, ten years of broken promises, ten years of corruption. You all know about the Sabarimala Gold case. People in Palakkad are very disappointed. Everywhere I'm going, I'm hearing they want change and we want young, smart, dynamic faces to be the face of that change..."
