Suryanelli: BJP central leadership supports Kurien

NEW DELHI: The BJP central leadership has come to the support of Rajya Sabha deputy chairman P J Kurien in the Suryanelli case. Rejecting state leadership’s attitude seeking the resignation of Kurien, they have made it clear that he need not resign in the case.

The case against Kurien is politically motivated, said party spokesman Muktar Abbas Naqvi at a press meet. In Kurien’s case, law will take its own course. The parliamentary party board will meet and take a decision as what attitude should be taken in the Parliament.
