He said the front leaders and workers would carry out foot marches in all Lok Sabha constituencies across the state in January.
The NDA has also decided to visit all Christian houses in the state with the Christmas message of PM Modi.
“Not just the BJP leaders, but all the leaders of the NDA will visit Christian houses across the state with the Prime Minister’s message,” Surendran said.
He said they would utilize the opportunity to expose the alleged communal appeasement policy of the Congress-led UDF and the CPI-headed LDF.
Listing out various programs being planned by the NDA ahead of the upcoming general elections, he said the front would complete its district mandalam conventions in December.
From January last and throughout the month of February, massive campaign marches would be carried out across Kerala under the aegis of the NDA.
