13 July 2013 11:50 PM GMT
The Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee on Friday came out in support of state chief minister Oommen Chandy, whose office has come under cloud in the solar scam, saying there was no need for his resignation on the issue.
‘Congress will launch a counter campaign to expose the nefarious designs of CPI-M-led LDF opposition to tarnish the image of the Chief Minister and UDF government,’ KPCC President Ramesh Chennithala told reporters here. Justifying Chandy’s decision not to quit on the issue, Chennithala said the opposition was not able to come out with a single evidence to link Chandy with the scam. There was no need for Chandy to resign for certain mistakes committed by some of his staff, he said, claiming LDF protests were with an eye on coming Lok Sabha polls.
