THRISSUR: Visuals of Union Minister Suresh Gopi, who was the NDA candidate, reaching in an ambulance for a peace talk when the Thiruvambady faction stopped the rituals of Thrissur Pooram due to strict restrictions imposed by the police, are out. In the ambulance, Suresh Gopi reached the area where the entry of vehicles was banned. In the visuals, Suresh Gopi can be seen getting down from the front seat of a Seva Bharati ambulance.

Suresh Gopi was the first to hold talks with the representatives of the Thiruvambady devaswom at 2 am. Later, LDF and UDF candidates also reached. The LDF and UDF candidates had alleged that it was mysterious that Suresh Gopi, who had stayed away from campaigning due to back pain, got into the ambulance.

They also pointed out that the ambulance used to transport patients should not be used for other purposes. CPI leader and LDF candidate VS Sunil Kumar had also alleged that it was mysterious that the NDA candidate, who did not appear at any of the main functions of Pooram, had arrived there at that time in a Seva Bharati ambulance.
