THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Rahul Gandhi will refrain from personal criticisms, however, he will reply to political comments from CPM, said Congress working committee member Oommen Chandy. “Rahul’s presence at Wayanad will eliminate BJP from south India. He chose to contest from a constituency from the south in the belief that ignorance towards the south isn’t right. He welcomed the request to contest from Wayanad, a place that shares its border with three states. This will reflect in all three states. People that came over from Ootty, Cuddalore and Mysore to see Rahul submit his nomination papers, is further proof of that”, Chandy said.

“Rahul’s reply to criticism from the left parties shows the greatness of the Congress and Nehru family. There will be political debates in democracy. They are making noise for fielding the president AICC at Congress’ sitting seat. I am not saying more”, Chandy added.

“LDF secured the highest majority at Kollam. Even then they are bothered with N.K. Premachandran’s candidacy”, Chandy asked.

“Let investigation commence on the allegations against M.K. Raghavan. He himself has asked for proofs”, opined Oommen Chandy.
