Thiruvananthapuram: KPCC president K Sudhakaran expelled KPCC secretary P S Prasanth from the party for openly criticizing the party leadership. He was earlier under suspension for criticizing the KPCC leadership.
Hecontinued with baseless allegations against the party leadership even under suspension. Hence he has been removed from the primary membership of the party, said Sudhakaran.
Prasanth contested from Nedumangadu constituency but was defeated in the assembly elections.
He alleged that Palode Ravi had campaigned against him to ensure his defeat. He flayed KPCC leadership for not taking action against Ravi despite his complaint. This was the reason for his suspension.
When Ravi was appointed the new DCC president, Prasanth alleged that AICC general secretary K C Venugopal has become a BJP agent to appoint Ravi as the district president. Earlier, he had alleged that Ravi had subverted Congress votes for BJP to defeat him.
