PALAKKAD: KPCC Digital Media Cell Convener Dr P Sarin blamed opposition leader V D Satheesan for the downfall of Congress in Kerala. Sarin said Satheesan was hijacking the party while taking major decisions with a carefree attitude. Sarin also expressed willingness to contest in Palakkad as an LDF candidate.
The decision was made after Congress ousted him for his direct attack against V D Satheesan and flouting party norms. Sarin revealed about BJP leaders contacting him and stated that the congress was ill-prepared to fight BJP in Palakkad. P SARIN: “First of all, we should introspect how V D Satheesan became the opposition leader of Kerala.
Satheesan is exhibiting authoritarian tendencies and has no respect for ordinary party workers. There is no forum even to complain in the party. Satheesan believes he is the numero uno and the undisputed leader of the party.
More interestingly, he has a soft approach towards BJP. Even Shafi was moved to Vadakara to help BJP gain a foothold in Palakkad. Just after Shafi’s victory in Vadakara, Rahul opened an MLA office in Palakkad without consulting with local party workers.
This has ruined the democratic ethos within the party. Rahul is my friend but one week back, I received a phone call from him and the friendly tone was missing in his talk. It was a veiled threat.
Rahul is walking in the footsteps of Satheesan and will soon transform into ‘Satheesan lite’. People should give a befitting reply to Rahul who humiliated veteran congress leader K Karunakaran. I am still with Congress and will fight to bring justice to ordinary party workers.
