Congress to contest in Aruvikkara seat

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The congress will only contest in the Aruvikkara seat lying vacant after the demise of G Karthikeyan, said UDF convenor P P Thankachan. Talking to the media after the UDF meeting, he said the chief minister has been entrusted to decide the deputy speaker in the assembly.

After evaluating the situations, the congress will field a contestant in Aruvikkara, who has a good chance of winning. The contestant is not decided by ‘A’ and ‘I’ groups. The RSP is a part of the UDF. They will cooperate with the Front in a good manner and move forward, he said.

Party spokespersons meet will convene on March 20 in the wake of Pandalam Sudhakaran’s controversial statement. The meet will be convened by KPCC chief V M Sudheeran. A decision was taken to convene the full meet of the UDF on April 4. A political campaign will be conducted against the LDF on April 26, he said.
