THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: KPCC chief K Sudhakaran MP said the decision of the high court division bench quashing the appointment of Kufos VC is a blow to the government protecting the vice chancellors demanding the governor to resign.

The LDF government appointed their favorites to key positions in universities flouting UGC norms. The appointment of the Technical University VC has now been cancelled by the Supreme Court and the Fisheries University VC appointment by the high court. This action is proof that the government's arguments for appointing the VC are against the UGC norms.

There are allegations that a minister from Central Travancore intervened to subvert UGC norms in the appointment of the Fisheries VC. The LDF government is ruling under the guise of nepotism. A thorough investigation into all the university appointments made during the LDF government is needed. Now the government is bringing an ordinance to remove the governor from the post of chancellor to appoint their own people in the universities. The action of the government to remove the governor from the post of chancellor is not sincere. Sudhakaran also mocked that this is only a tool to overcome the governor who has stood by the illegal appointments till date when he withdrew.

The home department is protecting the mayor who tried to make backdoor appointments in Thiruvananthapuram Corporation as well. The government is running a strategy to rescue the mayor who has deceived youths by conducting a farcical investigation using the police.

This government is supporting robbers, corrupt and criminals. This government is giving political protection for the guilty police officers. Even the victims of POCSO cases are being harassed by the police force. The chief minister is boasting that Kerala has the best policing by highlighting the police officers who are rape heroes. Kerala has never seen such a shameless administration. Sudhakaran also demanded that the chief minister should resign from the home department if he is unable to ensure justice to the common people and control the police who ride on them.
