Next Generation of Leaders in Kerala Politics

Does anyone else feel that LDF has a dearth of next generation leaders? People like M Swaraj who showed a lot of promise have now lost any appeal in the eyes of the public. On the other hand, UDF has a strong cadre of young leaders like Shafi, Rahul, Abin- the kind of firebrand leaders you would generally expect a communist party to have. Where did LDF lose the plot?!
