‎VT Balram and Sabarinath; The Congress began to explode. High Command's complaint flood‎

‎Thiruvananthapuram; Protests are strong in various districts as the final list of DCC chairpersons is to be announced today. The Congress high command is reportedly receiving an influx of complaints demanding changes in the list. The complaint alleged that those who had announced the end of the group's waits had themselves formed groups and inserted their followers into the list.‎

‎Initially, the new KCR leadership claimed that only efficiency would be considered and this time the chairpersons would be appointed. The leadership had also made it clear that women and youth would be given due representation. But the charge is that the present list is filled with undeserving people. Moreover, a section of leaders are raising strong criticism that the youth have not been treated.‎

‎Even as the demand for generational change in the Congress intensifies, leaders complain against the appointment of 70-year-tidings irrespective of this. The leaders point out that Pallot Ravi, who is currently being considered in Thiruvananthapuram, Rajendra Prasad of Kollam and ND Appachan, who is being considered for Wayanad, are over 70 years of age.‎

‎Poster protests have also appeared in front of the DCC office against Palod Ravi. Leaders from the district unit alleged that Ravi was a BJP-linked leader. The poster also criticised Ravi for being the leader who tried to defeat the Congress. The leaders have also sent complaints by email to the High Command stating these matters. It is pointed out that the honour should be reviewed or there would be a backlash.‎

‎There is also a strong demand for consideration of youth leader and former MLA KS Sabarinath in Thiruvananthapuram. There are pressures against the exclusion and inclusion of VT Balram in Palakkad. The names of the two MLAs were considered when the discussions started earlier. The names were later omitted in the final discussion. In the meantime, the complaints said that the group would not be complicit in the weips and appointed new groups and appointed their favourites. The complaint indirectly blamed K Sudhakaran, VD Satishan and KC Venugopal.‎
