Association planning to launch a nationalist political outfit aligned with the BJP in Kerala
THE CHRISTIAN Association & Alliance For Social Action (CASA), which claims to have the backing of 17 Christian denominations in Kerala, is exploring plans to float a political outfit that would be "purely nationalist" in its outlook and closely align with the BJP, said one of its founders.
"Our attempt is to float a right-wing national party. We have conducted studies to find the acceptability for such a political force, and we have found that there's a space for such a party in Kerala," said Kevin Peter, who also serves as the state president of CASA. Kevin along with five others founded CASA in 2018, and registered it as a society in 2019.

A year ago, the idea of a massive nationwide exercise to visit every single household to verify, add, or delete voters was not on anyone’s radar. After all, the Narendra Modi government did not even conduct the mandatory dec-adal census. Chief Election Commi sioner Gyanesh Kumar took charge in February 2025 and, for three months, did not utter the term ‘special intensive revision’ (SIR). Suddenly, one day in June, the CEC announced a nationwide SIR beginning with Bihar. Why so suddenly and so hastily?
