V D Satheesan, a senior Congress leader, filed his nomination, alleging collusion between the CPI(M) and BJP in various Kerala constituencies. He claimed electoral deals have occurred, impacting multiple seats, and accused BJP of fielding strategic candidates. Accusations have sparked political rebuttals from key figures, including Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan.

Amid political tensions in Kerala, senior Congress leader V D Satheesan has filed his nomination, making bold allegations against the CPI(M) and BJP. He claims the two parties are involved in electoral deals across several constituencies to ensure mutual victories.

The accusations specifically target arrangements in Konni, Ranni, Kasaragod, Manjeshwar, and Palakkad, among others. Satheesan linked a recent ED probe to the purported strategies, suggesting it was aimed at securing the Thrissur seat for the BJP.

These allegations have met with firm denials from both the CPI(M) and BJP, with responses labeling the claims as false. Leaders from various parties continue to intensify efforts, filing nominations to secure a win in the upcoming elections.
