from targeting 70 seats in kerala to the duplicity of the ldf and udf and a newfound camaraderie with some churches in the state bjp chief electionincharge prahbari for kerala cp radhakrishnan talks at length in an exclusive interview with bs anilkumar for the dance of democracy excerptshow do you view the allegation that bjp is having a secret understanding with cpm in keralaits a strange argument because the cpm and congress are openly in alliance in all other states they try to fool the people of kerala by creating a false impression that they are rivals i wonder why there is no media debate in kerala over this blatant political duplicity of congress and cpmwhat are the reasons hindering the rise of bjp as a major force in kerala it would be wrong to say that bjp is not making inroads in kerala we are the only party growing exponentially in kerala once bjp starts rising other parties lose their relevance see the fate of janata dal and congress in karnataka and andhra pradesh when we say that ldf and udf are the two sides of the same coin it is not an allegation its a truthhave you factored in the reasons behind the mass support that communists enjoy in kerala even as you dismiss it as a failed and antidevelopment ideologycommunists are great liars who have perfected the art of duplicity they pass off lies as truths they are against production and prosperity communists survive in kerala not because they do something different here but because kerala is comparatively richer due to malayalis grit and migratory nature communism is bound to fail in kerala and its downfall has already begunwhat prompted bjp to suddenly make claims about government formation in kerala when the party got only one seat in the last assembly electionwhen it starts yielding results its natural for you to work harder we are confident of our grip over politics and bjp forming government in kerala is not a preposterous propositionhow many seats and what share of votes you expect to win this timeour target is 70plus seats we are sure to win 30 to 32 percent votes in this election and efforts are on to pull that up to 35 percentare you banking too much on the camaraderie that bjp has developed of late with certain christian churches its not like that bjp wants to burst the impression that its against other religions thats a myth created by our political rivals we dont consider minorities as vote banks as cpm and congress do we are against en masse religious conversion and conversion offering money and materials we are not against a person switching his religious beliefs for spiritual and religious reasons we try to put across the message that we are not against anybody we dont exclude anybody from our agenda of development when a road is built the toll is not collected based on the religion of the people who use it of late
