The Malappuram leg of the Left Democratic Front (LDF) government’s Navakerala Sadas led by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan began at Tirur with a breakfast meeting with an invited group of people from Tirur, Tanur, Ponnani and Thavanur constituencies on Monday.
For the organisers, the presence of the son-in-law of former Indian Union Muslim League State president Syed Hyderali Shihab Thangal among the invited guests who interacted with the Chief Minister at Bianco Castle, Tirur, was a shot in the arm. For the people, however, Syed Haseeb Thangal was a name they were not familiar with.
District Congress Committee (DCC) member A.P. Moideen was suspended from the party membership after he attended the Chief Minister’s breakfast meeting at Tirur.
