LDF Intensifies Criticism of Satheesan Amid UDF Consultation Rift

A disagreement has grown inside Kerala’s ruling UDF alliance.

Convenor Adoor Prakash said important decisions were being made without enough discussion with alliance partners.

CPM leaders used his comments to criticize the government and say the alliance was in trouble.

M.V. Govindan alleged that Satheesan consulted BJP and RSS leaders, but the reports do not establish that claim as fact.

T.P. Ramakrishnan also accused Satheesan of making decisions alone and asked Congress leaders to explain their position.

Some Congress and UDF leaders reportedly supported Prakash’s call for more consultation.

BJP and Yuva Morcha activists were also reported to be protesting against ministers.

The articles describe these as political allegations and disagreements, not settled findings.
