Keralam govt faces unity test as UDF convener Adoor Prakash reiterates ‘lack of alliance consultations’ on key postings
Adoor Prakash says he will report his 'concerns' to AICC and dismisses statements by Congress Ministers that govt had kept UDF in the loop on key decisions
National IUML president Sayyid Sadiq Ali Shihab Thangal dismissed United Democratic Front convener Adoor Prakash's claim that the Keralam government had excluded the UDF from crucial decision-making and top political appointments. Speaking to reporters in Kozhikode after a meeting in New Delhi, Thangal asserted that the UDF had addressed political appointment concerns during their July 31 meeting.
He emphasized that regular bilateral discussions among alliance partners guided the government's decisions. IUML national general secretary P K Kunhalikutty dismissed the notion of significant disputes within the UDF, stating that the alliance was united in opposing the BJP's attempts to undermine the Election Commission of India's independence and constitutional integrity.
