‘Should be made CM, want no other posts’; V D Satheesan hardens stand

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: V D Satheesan has taken a stand that if he is not considered for the post of chief minister, he will not accept other posts. He informed his stand in the first meeting with observers. V D Satheesan also said that administrative experience is not a criterion in determining the chief minister. Satheesan made this clear in an interview given to the national media, citing examples of VS and Modi.

A leader's vision is important. He should have the ability to build a team. The weakness of the organization is the setback for the Congress in North India. Satheesan also said that the parties should talk in a way that Gen Z an understand. When asked whether he would accept any decision of the high command, his reply was 'the question is hypothetical'.

Meantime, the high command observers have started meeting the MLAs on who should be the chief minister of Kerala. Mukul Wasnik and Ajay Maken are meeting the MLAs separately. Senior leaders also met the observers after reaching the hotel. The meeting with the constituent parties will be held this evening.
