Polity question from Sub Inspector exam, 2022 by JKSSB

Which of the following political parties belong to Kerala?

Last updated Jun 24, 2026
Correct Answer: Option A — United Democratic Front
The political party (more precisely, the major political alliance or front) that belongs to Kerala among the given options is A) United Democratic Front.

A) United Democratic Front (UDF) — This is a well-established, active coalition in Kerala, led by the Indian National Congress (INC). It includes parties like the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML), various Kerala Congress factions, Revolutionary Socialist Party, and others. It is one of the two dominant fronts in Kerala's politics (alongside the Left Democratic Front or LDF), alternating in power for decades. The UDF serves as the main opposition currently and contests elections regularly in the state.

The other options do not correspond to any recognized political fronts or parties in Kerala:

B) United Capitalist Front — No such alliance or party exists in Kerala (or India broadly in this context). Searches yield no relevant matches; it appears fabricated.
C) United Socialist Front — No active or historical front by this exact name in Kerala. Earlier coalitions (like the United Front in the 1970s) existed but were different and dissolved; nothing matches this precisely today.
D) United Progressive Front — This does not exist in Kerala. (Note: The United Progressive Alliance or UPA is a national-level coalition led by Congress, in which some Kerala UDF constituents participate, but it is not a Kerala-specific front.)

Kerala's politics revolves primarily around the UDF (Congress-led, centre to centre-right) and LDF (CPI(M)-led, left-wing), with the BJP-led NDA as a smaller third force. The question likely refers to the UDF as the Kerala-specific entity matching the description.
Thus, the correct answer is A) United Democratic Front
