Congress leader A. B. Sabu announced here on Saturday that he would join the CPI(M). Groups within the Congress in Kerala had made it difficult to carry out political work “respectably,” he said. Politics centred around personal interests and individuals in the Congress in the State had prompted his exit from the party, and propelled him towards the LDF that prioritises people’s welfare, he said. Mr. Sabu is a former councillor and standing committee chairperson of the Kochi corporation and had served as general secretary of the District Congress Committee, besides being a member of the Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC).With the Prajwal Revanna sexual abuse case taking new twists every day, JD(S) State president and former Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy on Monday appealed to the Hassan MP, who is his nephew, to return and subject himself to the legal process. This is the first time that such an appeal has been made by the family.
Amidst continuing protest over the murder of Anjali Ambiger in Hubballi, Home Minister G. Parameshwara, who visited the victim’s family on Monday, announced in a press conference that like the Neha Hiremath case, this too would be handed over to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) for inquiry.
