Home minister a Vethal, CM helpless: P.C. George

Kochi: Government Chief Whip P.C. George has turned to the bog to make fun of Home Minister Thiruvanchoor Radhakrishnan. In his new blog post on Saturday, he compared the minister to the mythological character 'Vethal.' He also said the minister favoured the CPM activists jailed in connection with the TPC murder case and criticised the police inaction in the solar case.

In the blog post named as ‘Bojaraja and Naveena Vethal’ and written as a story from the ‘puranas,’ George compared T.P. Chandrasekharan to an Army commander. Referring to the CPM activists using high-end phones and posting their pictures on Facebook, he wrote that the accused enjoyed better facilities than the Chief Minister himself. George also found fault with the probe into the TPC murder.

He portrayed Saritha S. Nair as ‘Sarpasundari’(influential lady) and said she would be released soon and that the authorities were speeding up the process. The post termed Oommen Chandy as a hapless person. Though the CM was doing a meticulous job through the mass contact programme, others were hurting him, he said.
