Sharing his vision for the Palakkad Assembly constituency in a series of tweets, Sreedharan, also known as the Metroman for his leadership in building the Delhi Metro, said, "Indore is the top city in India currently and I assure that in five years, Palakkad can become the top smart city."

Talking about the reasons why he joined politics, Sreedharan said, "A few words on why I joined politics. When I saw all states except Kerala moving ahead with development, I felt that I should offer the rest of my life in seva (service), bringing the same (development) to the people of Kerala.
"I see my entry into politics not as a war but as a football match. My opponents are only opponents on the field of play as in a football match. Also, only a dharmic campaign can bring success and I see this as seva for the nation," he tweeted.
