Its good to see that not many people in India are buying this type of politics.

The Indian public is by and large a seasoned electorate after more than 6 decades of democratic process. As the public evolves, so do their leaders, cause the polity is of the people, by the people, and for the people (themselves included of course). If you do not keep up with the times and take your finger of the pulse of the masses, then you get left behind. That of course does not mean you do not have a role to play any more in the larger scheme of things of running the nation. Far from it. A powerful, vibrant and united opposition is as important to the fate of our nation as is the ruling coalition. One without the other brings about a state of dangerous imbalance. Unlike fledgling 'democracies' where the pendulum swings wildly between usurping power by proxy or force on the one hand and being banished from the country at pain of death on the other. So I repeat, a strong resurgent BJP is in the best interests of India and every Indian, whether he chooses to vote them into power or not.

IUML banner
Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) is a Muslim nationalist political party in India. The chief support base of the party falls inside northern and central Kerala.
Note that since the name 'Indian Union Muslim League' is registered at the Electoral Commission by a splinter-group of the party, the party contests elections as the 'Muslim League Kerala State Committee'.

[edit]History

The party participated in the ouster of the first Communist Party of India (CPI) government in Kerala in 1959. In 1960 the party took part in the formation of a coalition government in the state, consisting of the Indian National Congress, Praja Socialist Party and IUML. The government proved short lived. In the elections in Kerala in 1967 the party had entered a united front led by the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPI(M)). The other members of the front were CPI, Revolutionary Socialist Party, Karshaka Thozhilali Party (Peasants and Workers Party), Kerala Socialist Party and Samyukta Socialist Party. Muslim League had two ministers in the state government of that front. In 1969 the party left the CPI(M)-led government and participated in the formation of a new government, led by Communist Party of India leader Achutha Menon as Chief Minister, together with CPI, RSP, KSP and Kerala Congress.
After the 1970 elections Achyutha Menon became elected Chief Minister for the second time. Members of the governing coalition were Indian National Congress, IUML, RSP and PSP. The Menon government lasted until the downfall of the Indira Gandhi regime in 1977 (no state elections were held in this period). In the chaos that followed the IUML leader C.H. Mohammed Koya held the post of Chief Minister in 1979.
[edit]Disintegration ahead of the 1980 elections

When two political fronts, United Democratic Front and Left Democratic Front, crystallized ahead of the 1980 elections two different sections of IUML landed up in opposite camps. A break-away faction, the All India Muslim League joined LDF and the Indian Union Muslim League joined UDF. The two groups reunited in 1985 under the name IUML and as members of UDF.
In 1987 IUML left UDF for a period.
[edit]Organizational structure

The party youth wing is called Muslim Youth League and their students wing is called Muslim Students Federation. The Party has a women's political wing too - it is called Muslim Women's League. In Kerala the party has a separate trade union organization, Swatantra Thozhilali Union (S.T.U., Independent Workers Union), and a peasants union, Swathanthra Karshaka Sangam (Independent Peasants Union), Lawyers Forum for Advocates and KMCC for expatriates of IUML supporters.
In Kerala the party had 4 ministers in the recent UDF government. Khader Mohideen is the national general Secretary of the party.[1] Apart from Kerala, the party also has some influence in Tamil Nadu. In Tamil Nadu the party is a member of Democratic Progressive Alliance. In the Lok Sabha elections in 2004 the party won two Parliament seats, E. Ahamed from Kerala and K. M. Kader Mohideen from Tamil Nadu (elected as a Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam candidate from Vellore). In Election in 2009, Mr. E. Ahamed( Malappuram) and Mr E.T Muhammad Basheer (Ponnani) won the seats and Mr E Ahamed became the Minister of State for Railways.
