Speaking to media persons, Congress leader Ramesh Chennithala said seat-sharing discussions are in the final stages.

"We will complete it within two days and will be declaring it after it. The anti-people policies of LDF, corruption, nepotism, gold smuggling case, the Life Mission scam will be kept before the people to expose the LDF government. Also, our main development agenda to bring in an overall change will be part of our mfesto," he said.

The main campaign slogan 'Nadu Nannakan UDF' - which roughly translates to 'UDF to make Kerala better' - along with sub slogans on campaign posters were unveiled by senior UDF leaders.

The election for 140-member Kerala Assembly in 14 districts will be held in a single phase on April 6.

The tenure of the 14th Kerala legislative assembly will come to an end on June 1, 2021. A total of 2,67,88,268 electors will elect the candidates in Kerala for the 15th legislative assembly.

For Assembly poll 2021, the number of polling booths in Kerala has been extended from 21,498 to 40,771. The counting of votes will be held on May 2.
