LDF plays foul in Pala: Ramesh Chennithala

Ramesh also criticised both the LDF and the BJP over their Sabarimala policy.

Kottayam: Opposition leader Ramesh Chennithala on Monday accused the LDF of misusing government machinery for Pala by-election with ministers camping in the constituency.

He said people had already evaluated the LDF government in the Lok Sabha elections and he did not expect a different verdict as its performance worsened after that.

"Why is the LDF not soliciting votes on its achievements?" he asked.

He also criticised both the LDF and the BJP over their Sabarimala policy.

"The chief minister (Pinarayi Vijayan) is trying to vitiate the atmosphere," he said. "That’s why he says there's no change in the stand of his government."

He alleged that the BJP was also playing trickery on Sabarimala devotees.

He questioned the propriety of the government's advertisement campaign in the run-up to influence voters.
