Kalpeta :In a bid to resolve problems in Wayanad BJP caused by election fund fraud, K Surendran opts to hold talks for a compromise on the situation. The decision came about after the state president finally bowed to pressure mounted by dissenting leaders. A group of the party’s local leaders had ditched the party owing to lack of response to their complaint on the topic. Reconciliatory talks are currently in progress at district headquarters in Kalpeta.
Earlier, senior leaders had asked for K Surendran’s firsthand handling of the situation by going to Wayanad personally, but the request fell on deaf ears. Shortly after, an entire committee of Batheri Mandalam tendered its resignation and several leaders quit the party. Divisions inside worsened further when Mandala Secretary KB Madanlal was ousted from the party.
