T'PURAM: With A K Antony making it clear that he will not be contesting again to the Upper House, many senior leaders in the Congress party have staked claim for the lone Rajya Sabha seat which the UDF can win from the state.
It will undoubtedly be a task cut out for the KPCC leadership to find a replacement for Antony since there are many aspirants for the seat. The first to come out in open expressing his desire to get the Rajya Sabha seat was senior leader K V Thomas. He has said that he would like to contest for the Rajya Sabha seat but it was the party to take a decision.
