New Delhi, Mar 20 (UNI): In a major boost to the BJP in its ambitious plan for the forthcoming Lok Sabha polls in Kerala, the saffron party on Wednesday entered into seat arrangement with the Bharath Dharma Jana Sena and the P.C. Thomas-led Kerala Congress.

According to BJP sources, the Kerala Congress faction will fight in one, the saffron party will sweat it out in 14 seats and the Bharath Dharma Jana Sena will put up their nominees in five seats.

BJP is also likely to field party veteran and former Mizoram governor Kummanam Rajasekharan from Thiruvananthapuram against Congress leader and sitting MP Shashi Tharoor.

The southern state will go to the polls on April 23.

BJP sources also said that the party is expecting to give good fight and win at least half a dozen seats from the Left-ruled state.
