Actor Suresh Gopi's term in the Rajya Sabha ended yesterday. BJP state president K Surendran has said that Suresh Gopi has done well in the last six years as a Rajya Sabha member despite having no political background. Surendran wrote in a Facebook post that MPs from LDF and UDF in Kerala have a lot to learn from Suresh Gopi and that the Thrissur mayor understood exactly that.

'Despite not having a party political background, Suresh Gopi has done well as a Rajya Sabha member for the last six years. Sympathy for the poor, the right outlook on development, meticulousness in choosing projects ... UDF and LDF MPs still have a lot to learn from this man. Kerala has heard what the Mayor of Thrissur understood and said about him,' Surendran wrote.
