Politics of India Political parties Elections

P. M. A. Salam was the first National League candidate to get elected to the Kerala Assembly (2006).[2] Indian National League was formally inducted into the Left Democratic Front in the late 2010s.[2][3]

The partly currently has two factions (A. P. Abdul Wahab faction and Kasim Irikkur faction).[4]

History

Indian National League was formed as a reaction to the continued alliance of Indian Union Muslim League with Indian National Congress post Babri Masjid Demolition.[2][1]
Opposition raised by several Communist Party of India Marxist leaders, who saw the National League as a communal party, ensured that the National League had to stay outside the Left Democratic Front for over two decades (1994 - 2018).[2]
The Indian National League mostly allied with the Communist Party of India Marxist unofficially in certain seats in the various Kerala Assembly elections between 1994 and 2018.[2]
Indian National League was associated with the United Democratic Front briefly in 2010-11.[3]

Controversies

It was alleged that Indian National League had 'sold' the post of the member of Kerala Public Service Commission (KPSC) for Rs 40 lakh.[2]
