KOTTAYAM: The leadership issue inside the Kerala Congress (Mani) group should be solved through open talks, said Mons Joseph MLA. All leaders should be ready for open discussions. There should be a discussion and a compromise. A decision should be taken after considering the opinion of P J Joseph, he said.

He said, “Our goal is not to divide the party. 95% of the leaders and activists want the party to move forward unitedly as a family. Two posts are lying vacant in the party. The name of the chairman should be announced after convening a state committee or a steering committee.”
