PATHANAMTHITTA: Geevarghese Yulios, the metropolitan bishop of Kunnamkulam Orthodox Diocese was called a 'disaster' by George Joseph, husband of health minister Veena George. The scathing attack on the revered figure happened when George was giving an interview for an online media.

Recently Geevarghese Yulios criticized a move by police to find the culprits behind a poster against minister Veena George in Pathanamthitta. Police then barged into the home of one orthodox youth member and tried confiscating his car which made Yulios go fury saying the act was a human rights violation.

George said Yulios was the master of loose talks and gave insights into how he wielded power that is now beyond the control of the diocese.

"Congress tried to bring Yulios into the poster issue and he accepted that role. He is the same one who publicly called the Christian sections to defeat Veena during the last elections. Yulios also provided money for the BJP candidate in Aranmula and asked the diocese to vote in favor of the saffron party for development”. accused George.
