At a prayer meeting on Friday, former Devaswom board president Prayar Gopalakrishnan came out with a curious revelation about Minister Kadakampally Surendran.
"I have a secret to reveal about Minister Kadakampally Surendran. Lord Ayyappa promise, I have not said this to anyone because he was my department minister; he also rolled his eyes to silence me, threatening me of action...When I was the Devaswom board president, Kadakampally came to Sabarimala. 'Vavar' Jaleel also joined him. I was happy to see them. I chaperoned them to Sannidhanam like I would do to kings but in front of Sabarimala Ayyappan, Kadakampally turned away his face.
Before that another incident happened. Since Jaleel was much younger he hoped ahead faster. Kadakampally also tried to emulate him. After climbing for sometime, he started vomiting. When it became severe, a few Tamil Ayyappas who were near him called aloud Swamiyee Saranamayyappa...Finally the Communist minister also started chanting aloud the Sarana Mantra.. Swamiyee Saranam Ayyappa....Like this there are many truths...I shall speak out all..." Prayar Gopalakrishnan said.
