Opposition Still Stand For Resignation of Kerala CM

State secretary of CPI(M) Pinarayi Vijayan has said that the Opposition Left Democratic Front does not intend to topple the UDF Government in the State.Its sole demand is Chandy’s resignation over the solar scam, which had compromised the office of the Chief Minister through alleged complicity of staff.

“But we are not concerned; we demand resignation of only the Chief Minister,” Vijayan said. A judicial inquiry was the best option for Chandy to come clean since he had always sought to protest his innocence. “There has been a virtual torrent of statements and evidences against Chandy. So much so, he could even become a co-accused with prime accused Saritha Nair,” Vijayan alleged.

The scam involved an amount of Rs 40,000 crore originally committed as investments by a few entrepreneurs in the State, Vijayan alleged. A probe must be ordered to determine how a mega investment had since come to be appropriated in bits and pieces by scamsters. The Opposition’s stance in the matter is very clear, he said while addressing the demonstration.
