KODUNGALLOOR: BJP state chief K Surendran asked why no action was taken against EMCC in the deep-sea fishing agreement. Minister Mercikutty Amma said that it is a fraudulent company. Surendran said the chief minister asserted that he didn’t know anything.

‘Negotiations were held inside and outside the country in connection with the agreement. Company officials called on the chief minister, industry minister and the fisheries minister. It was the same in the gold smuggling case also. Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan adopted this policy in all corruptions. He will first deny and then will withdraw. The main issue in Kerala is corruption. E Sreedharan and Jacob Thomas will be fielded to fight corruption. The NDA is a front led by anti-corruption activists,’ said Surendran.

He criticised saying that the Muslim League is swallowing up the Congress and that the League will decide where Mullappally should stand. K Muraleedharan knows this. Murali had said this while he was in Vattiyoorkavu. League votes are not an issue there. He is silent when he reached Vadakara. Murali has doubts on League, said Surendran.
