CPI(M) State secretary Kodiyeri Balakrishnan has said the Supreme Court verdict in the ISRO spy case has exposed the decadent culture of the Congress party.
Blaming former Chief Minister Oommen Chandy for falsely implicating ISRO scientist Nambi Narayanan, Mr. Balakrishnan said Congress party were liable to pay the ₹50 lakh compensation that the SC awarded to Mr. Narayanan. He also called on the UDF leaders to admit their role in the conspiracy hatched by Mr. Chandy to unseat former CM K. Karunakaran and install A.K. Antony in his place. He welcomed Padmaja Venugopal’s statement that she would reveal the names of five Congress leaders who had conspired to fabricate the case.
