PALAKKAD: Metro Man E Sreedharan said that whether he wins or loses, he will be in Palakkad constituency. The BJP candidate from Palakkad said that he will continue working for the people. He said that his politics are development and industry. Focus will be on waste and drinking water. He said that he would not wait to become an MLA in taking steps to address these issues.

He said that he has not said anything to get votes. Arrangements have been made for his accommodation and MLA office in Palakkad constituency, added Sreedharan.

The BJP has a strong working system. So, I didn’t have to suffer much personally in the elections and the real effort was taken by the BJP workers. The BJP has never felt the need to correct anything. The BJP should be encouraged if the state and the country have to prosper, he said.

Metro Man was pitted against young two-time Congress legislator Shafi Parambil, who is also the president of the Youth Congress and C P Pramod of the CPM.

Meanwhile Palakkad district Congress committee president and also the Palakkad Lok Sabha member V K Sreekandan played down the confidence of Sreedharan and said no doubt he is a renowned engineer.

"We also heard that he is going to open an office here. It's good because Indian Railways have announced various projects in Palakkad and his services would be good for that, while the Palakkad legislator's office here would be that of Shafi Parambil," said Sreekandan.
