IDUKKI: Jose K Mani was not expelled from UDF but he quit the Front on his own, Kerala Congress leader P J Joseph has said. “No one can foretell where he is going to go…whether it is LDF or NDA…” he told media person.
P J Joseph said Jose K Mani should accept the decision of the UDF. He should ask the district president to resign and remind him about the agreement in that matter. “Any party who doesn’t accept the decision of the UDF won’t be able to remain as its ally. It is not right to say that he was ousted. He is saying so to create some other impression. If he returns as a good boy, we shall think about taking him back,” he said.
Referring to Kodiyeri Balakrishnan’s remark in an article in Deshabhimani paper today that Jose K Mani’s faction has a strong base, Joseph sarcastically commented that “that base is collapsing. Many will resign today also.”
