In Kerala, a dispute has arisen regarding some financial dealings involving T Veena, the daughter of Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, and her IT company and a private minerals company.
Kerala BJP State President K Surendran on Thursday slammed both the ruling Left Democratic Front (LDF) and Opposition party United Democratic Front (UDF) over the alleged corruption charges against CM Pinarayi Vijayan's daughter Veena Vijayan.
Speaking to the media, Mr Surendran said, "There is a secret understanding with CPI-M and Congress, ruling party and the opposition party to wind up the assembly session because of corruption charges against CM's daughter and not because of Puthuppally by-election. Why Congress is not raising the issue in the floor of the Assembly? So we are going to launch a strong fight against this understanding."
