Former Keralam CM Pinarayi Vijayan congratulates Lula da Silva on electoral success in Brazil
Former Keralam Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has congratulated Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva on his continued electoral success, saying the outcome reaffirmed the relevance of Left politics and the working class’s role in shaping its future.
In a social media post, Vijayan said the experience of Brazil offered lessons for India, arguing that confronting far-right politics required a systemic alternative rooted in workers’ rights, social justice and equality.
He also linked Lula’s electoral success to the political contest in India, saying it renewed hope in the struggle against what he described as the divisive politics of the Sangh Parivar.
Vijayan’s message highlighted the shared political themes of economic justice, equality and democratic values, drawing a parallel between political developments in Brazil and the Indian Left’s opposition to the BJP-led political ideology.
