Central leadership not in favour of entertaining growing discontent with the new dispensation in State unit
With the Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) leadership setting its agenda for reorienting the party, the central leadership appears to have refused to entertain the growing discontentment with the new dispensation in the State unit.
That former All India Congress Committee (AICC) chief Rahul Gandhi during his one-day visit to the Wayanad Lok Sabha constituency on Wednesday declined to grant audience to disgruntled leaders to discuss the unprecedented changes showed that the central leadership is against disturbing the existing equilibrium in the party.
Beset by problems in Punjab, Rajasthan, and Chhattisgarh and challenges posed by the so-called G-23, the central leadership is of the view that the new KPCC leadership is marching determinedly to revamp the party apparatus.

Former CM B.S. Yediyurappa had challenged the first information report registered on March 14, 2024, on the alleged incident that occurred on February 2, 2024, the chargesheet filed by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), and the February 28, 2025, order of taking cognisance of offences afresh by the trial court.
