Indian National League (INL) is an Indian political party formed in 1994 under the leadership of the then IUML leader Ebrahim Sulaiman Sait. The party is currently a member of the CPIM-led LDF in Kerala. INL leader Ahamed Devarkovil, MLA from Kozhikode South Constituency, serves as a minister in the Second Pinarayi Vijayan ministry. PMA Salam was the first INL candidate to get elected to the Kerala Assembly (2006). INL was formally inducted into the LDF in the late 2010s.

History

* Indian National League was formed as a reaction to the continued alliance of IUML with INC post Babri Masjid Demolition. * Opposition raised by several CPIM leaders, who saw the National League as a communal party, ensured that the National League had to stay outside the LDF for over two decades (1994 - 2018). * The Indian National League mostly allied with the CPIM unofficially in certain seats in the various Kerala Assembly elections between 1994 and 2018. * Indian National League was associated with the UDF briefly in 2010-11. * A group under leadership of Abdul Wahab left INL and formed his own party ''National League''

Controversies

* It was alleged that INL had 'sold' the post of the member of KPSC for Rs 40 lakh.
