Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan speaks to Prannoy Roy, along with senior journalists I.P. Bajpai, Uma Sudhir, and Shikha Trivedy, in a wide-ranging conversation ahead of the 2026 Assembly elections. Having already broken a decades-long political pattern by securing consecutive terms, Vijayan is now seeking a third mandate — positioning governance continuity as central to Kerala’s progress. In this interview, he addresses: The decision to reshuffle his cabinet and questions around leadership style LDF’s governance record across infrastructure, welfare, and economic growth Claims of poverty reduction and development across sectors The evolving dynamics between LDF, UDF, and national politics Concerns around youth employment, economy, and federal relations Kerala’s model of social harmony and secularism As competing narratives intensify: From development claims to political challenges, Kerala heads into a crucial electoral moment. Can continuity translate into another mandate, or is the political ground shifting? #KeralaPolitics #PinarayiVijayan #OnTheRecord #DeKoder #IndianPolitics #Elections2026 #LDF #UDF #PoliticalInterview #AssemblyElections #CMKerala Now Explore world stories, elections and more on DeKoder.com & on our app!
