==Formation==<br />
Mani C. Kappan and his Nationalist Congress Party were part of the ruling [[Left Democratic Front (Kerala)|Left Democratic Front]] alliance in Kerala. After rumours that the LDF was planning to give Kappan's sitting seat to [[Kerala Congress (M)]], Kappan decided to leave the alliance. He initially claimed that he had the support of the party leadership and the party was planning to leave LDF and join the [[United Democratic Front (Kerala)|United Democratic Front]]. However, the party's state and national leadership decided to continue with the LDF and Kappan decided to float a new party in 2021 February.<ref>https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/kerala/kappan-forms-nationalist-congress-kerala/article33905288.ece</ref><br />
