Left coalition’s victory comes amidst a turf war within the Kerala Congress (M)
Amidst a turf war within the Kerala Congress (M) among its former allies in Central Travancore, the faction led by Jose K. Mani has received a major shot in the arm by wresting control of the Pala-based Meenachil Cooperative Agricultural & Rural Development Bank from the rival camp.
In an election for the 13 seats in the bank’s governing council held on Sunday, the party won 10 seats, while the CPI(M), its key ally in the Left Democratic Front (LDF), secured two seats. The lone remaining seat went to the CPI, also a constituent of the LDF.
