Former CPI(M) Leader G Sudhakaran to Contest Independently, Predicts LDF Defeat

Bias Analysis: The articles primarily present the perspective of G Sudhakaran, a former CPI(M) leader critical of his party and the LDF leadership, highlighting his claims of political failure and internal conflicts. They also include his positive remarks about the Congress-led UDF's supportive role. The coverage reflects viewpoints from Sudhakaran and mentions reactions from CPI(M), but lacks direct statements from other parties, focusing on intra-party dissent and opposition dynamics.

Sentiment: The overall tone is critical of the CPI(M) leadership and the LDF, reflecting Sudhakaran's dissatisfaction and allegations of internal attacks. However, it also conveys a constructive and hopeful sentiment regarding his independent candidacy and support from the UDF and some Left members. The sentiment is mixed, combining criticism with expressions of political resolve and cross-party cooperation.
