|February 06, 2025
THE UDF's nine-day 'High Range protest rally', which began from Irikkur in Kannur on January 25 and concluded at Amboori in Thiruvananthapuram on Wednesday, has put the opposition one foot ahead of the ruling LDF and BJP.
Covering the High Range villages of 12 districts, the protest rally against the alleged failure of the Left government is expected to boost the moral power of the UDF ahead of the local body election.
The UDF took up the issue of wild animal attack, and raised the demand for the intervention of the Union government in the buffer zone issue to save the agricultural sector.
Barring Kasaragod and Alappuzha districts, UDF leaders travelled extensively in select villages of High Ranges visiting houses of victims who were killed in wild animal attacks, and addressing public meetings.
