N2  - The setback suffered by the Left Democratic Front in the local body elections in Kerala points to the salience of religious and economic factors, and their interface with governance, in shaping voting behaviour. Of particular significance are popular resentment over the left’s vacillating ideological stance, resistance to top-down development, and growing disquiet among women workers. In the absence of a credible governance narrative, targeted welfare measures also failed to yield an electoral dividend.-Reproduced
