UDF victory to strengthen UPA at the Centre: Moily

Kozhikode, April 22 (UNI) Asserting that Congress led UDF Government will comback to power with absolute majority in Kerala, Party General Secretary M Veerappa Moily today said victory in the state and neighbouring Tamilnadu would strengthen the United Democratic Alliance Government at Centre.

Addressing a meet the press programme here, Mr Moily, incharge of party affairs in the state, said the UDF had a clear edge over its principal rival LDF as the people were happy with the development schemes initiated by the government during its five year term in the state.

Mr Moily who mediated a tie up between the UDF and Democratic Indira Congress (K) floated by senior congress leader K Karunakaran, said the arrangement was working well as they were able to give a tough fight to the rival formation.

Stating that the CPM was the main enemy of Congress in West Bengal, Kerala and Tripura, he said the Left support to the UPA at the Centre was aimed at only keeping the communal forces at bay.
