The UDF coalition partner IUML is increasingly frustrated with the postponement in deciding Kerala's new Chief Minister. Leaders are vocal about the mounting public inquiries, especially from women, concerning the holdup.

According to IUML MLA Kurukkoli Moideen, internal Congress conflicts are at the heart of these delays. He assured that despite the hurdles, Congress's strong leadership would eventually resolve the issue.

Other IUML members, like T V Ibrahim, argue that the protraction has tarnished the UDF's electoral victory, stressing the need for a prompt resolution in the public interest.
