Political Maneuvering: Ramesh Chennithala's Silent Stance

In a notable turn of events, senior Congress leader Ramesh Chennithala was conspicuously absent from his residence following the AICC's announcement of V D Satheesan as Kerala's next Chief Minister.

Though he was among the contenders, Chennithala chose a different path, visiting the Guruvayur Lord Krishna temple. Reports about his alleged opposition to the appointment circulated, though sources close to him refuted claims of dissent.

As media gathered at his home, Congress leader Jyothi Kumar Chamakkala confirmed his absence, revealing that Chennithala had taken an alternative route. His unspoken response to the political shift invites speculation and underlines the complex dynamics within the party.
