Fathima Thahiliya, national vice president of the Muslim Students Federation, has asked Muslim League national general secretary Kunhalikutty to address former minister KT Jaleel as 'sir' in the Assembly. The MSF vice-president came up with the sarcastic remark on her Facebook page.

Fathima jokingly said Kunhalikutty should show some mercy to cyber comrades since they have been trying hard to force him to address Jaleel as 'sir'.

Earlier, some reports had claimed that KT Jaleel would be taking over as the Speaker of the Assembly. It was later confirmed that former MP MB Rajesh would take over the post.
