"They think they can win one or two -three seats but it's not going to happen that can be a dream for them winning a seat in Kerela Assembly, they are not going to open a Account in Kerala Assembly Elections even though they are trying hard with the unholy alliance of CPM and BJP because People of Kerala are not going to accept it, thier Chief Ministers are Coming They have money Power but Kerala is a different state," he said.
