New Delhi – The race for the Chief Minister’s chair in Kerala has intensified, with sources revealing that Congress MP Rahul Gandhi has thrown his weight behind K.C. Venugopal for the top post. Venugopal, who currently serves as the Congress General Secretary (Organisation) and represents Alappuzha in the Lok Sabha, has emerged as Gandhi’s primary choice to lead the United Democratic Front (UDF) government following its landslide victory.
The next 48 hours are expected to be a period of high-stakes internal lobbying, as central leadership attempts to build a consensus among local leaders and party workers. The UDF has secured a commanding two-thirds majority in the 140-member Kerala Assembly with 102 seats, of which the Congress holds 63 and the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) holds 22.
