​​Opposition leader V D Sateeshan has come up with a justification for the criticisms being levelled against his private secretary. “Some are spreading the fake news that my private secretary Anil Kumar is a Marxist party sympathiser. He was an active worker of KSU and we have worked together,” he said. He also added that it Ramesh Chennithala and G Karthuikeyan who nominated Anil Kumar to the position of administrator of Guruvayoor Devaswom and certain circles who are irked by him becoming the opposition leader are the ones who are working behind the hate campaign.
