9 July 2013
Thiruvananthapuram
Kerala Chief Minister Oommen Chandy on Tuesday rejected the Opposition Left Democratic Front’s demand for his resignation in connection with the solar panel scam. The LDF, however, decided to step up its agitation and has called for a harthal on Wednesday.
The Assembly, which was scheduled to hold sittings till July 18, went through the motions of getting the finance bill passed before adjourning sine die, even as the Opposition continued to stall the proceedings.
The United Democratic Front and the Congress party have extended unconditional support to the Chief Minister. Congress Working Committee member and Defence Minister A.K. Antony’s response put the brakes on speculations about a leadership change. “Currently, there is no political crisis in the UDF. So, don’t expect a change of guard,” he told media persons here.
