THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Just one day after lending support to accused Nikhil Thomas of MSM college, SFI has now decided to oust him from the party. The organization said Nikhil tricked SFI into believing all his certificates were authentic.SFI also lambasted their former leader saying that the malice committed is of the lowest standard and something that should have never crossed into the mind of an SFI cadre.

“ SFI asked for an explanation from Nikhil right after the accusation sprouted out. Nikhil however tricked the organization and took many into confidence with his talks.SFI had limits for any probe and we did it by accessing the eligibility certificate of Nikhil from Kerala University. We found the eligibility certificate submitted by Nikhil as an authentic one. This was shared with the media too. However, doubts still loomed within SFI about his impossible entrance into Kalinga University. It was only after the declaration from the Kalinga registrar that the fraud got confirmed. SFI could only go for an RTI and we did it. “ explained the organization's Facebook post.

According to most reports, SFI went for the tough decision after failing to fight the rampant attacks from the media houses in the state.
