PATHANAMTHITTA: UDF leaders will trek to Sabarimala on Tuesday in order to violate section 144. Senior leaders such as Oommen Chandy, M K Muneer, P J Joseph, N K Premachandran, Johnny Nellur, C P John, G Devarajan and Benny Behanan will be included in the team. They seek to withdraw section 144 declared at Sabarimala. UDF stand is that section 144 should not be declared at any places of worship. They are trekking to Sabarimala in order to strengthen their involvement in the Sabarimala issue.
Meantime, BJP MPs Nalin Kumar Kateel and V Muraleedharan will visit Sabarimala on Tuesday. They will reach Nilakkal at 10 am. State secretary J R Padmakumar and Pathanamthitta district president Ashokan Kulanad will accompany MPs.
