I'll abide by party directive: Chandy

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Chief Minister Oommen Chandy said that he would abide by the party’s any directive.

He said this when brought to notice NSS general secretary G Sukumaran Nair’s statement asking chief minister to take up the post of KPCC chief after the former said that this post was bigger than the CM post.

Chandy said, “All problems will be solved through discussions. I’ve spoken about the entry of Chennithala. There is no change in my personal opinion. When asked whether Chennithala would be made the home minister, he said that it cannot be discussed openly. I was entrusted to take a decision after holding discussions on the ministerial post lying vacant.”

The Kerala Congress (B) has not demanded a ministerial post in writing. No discussions were held regarding the entry of Ganesh.

In reply to a question on the interview given to English daily, Chandy said that he doesn’t think Chennithala will give one like that. I will not try to insult anybody. The congress had always tried to work collectively which will continue hereafter.
