THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Rejecting the NDA candidates nomination papers is a drawback, said BJP state chief K Surendran. The circumstances for rejecting it will be examined after the polls. Further action would be decided after the court verdict comes and if it is against then will send a message to the voters whom to support, he said while talking to a news channel.

The emotion of Sabarimala is not one that can be easily extinguished. The issue is still active after the chief minister and Kanam Rajendran clarified their views again. What is in mind of the CPM over the Sabarimala issue are becoming clear again. If the previous stance had changed, Pinarayi Vijayan should have clarified it. Surendran alleged that they are driven by a sense of pride that the party's stand taken earlier is correct.

I don’t think the NSS will take a pro-UDF stance in all constituencies. There is no unholy relationship in rejecting the plea.
