Protests by Communist Party of India (Marxist) workers in Kuttiyadi over the party conceding the seat to the Kerala Congress (M) have its echoes in faraway Piravom, with seat aspirant and KC(M) youth wing leader Gils Periappuram quitting the party.
Irked by the KC(M)’s decision to field Sindhumol Jacob, a CPI(M)-backed block panchayat member from Uzhavoor, he said on Thursday that it was a “payment seat”.
