Thiruvananthapuram: A Facebook post crafted to defend her son, KS Sabarinath MLA - now on hunger -strike in front of secretariat - has boomeranged on PT Sulekha teacher. What began as debate on Sabarinath’s eligibility to profess back door appointments ethics, escalated to take a direct aim at his mother PT Sulekha teacher. Responders dared him to put out the legitimate rank list against the jobs his mother held as College Lecturer, Exam Controller and Encyclopedia Director. When son fumbled on a reply, Sulekha teacher tweaked her own post in defense saying, family members at homes of leaders should be spared of insults.
Insults galore…
The Irony is, PT Sulekha teacher is mother of an MLA whose party is preoccupied with insulting CPI(M) leaders and their family members in print, visual and social media. In one such show, Sabarinath himself insulted MB Ragesh’s wife on television channel, in connection with her college lecturer job,
For the 6 months, Congress never took time off from dragging various CPI(M) leaders and their family members into the gold smuggling controversy.
In her zeal for the tradition, Bindhu Krishna went as far as to flaunt a fake photo of CM’s daughter’s wedding ceremony in which EP Jayarajan’s wife’s face was cropped out and replaced with Swapna Suresh.
Thus the insult sentiment Sulekha expresses is rather empty, with latest in the series being the party’s Working Committee president, K Sudhakaran, referring to Chief Minister as ‘son of palm climber.’
