In what is being widely perceived as a political counter-initiative to the Left Democratic Front-led Kerala government’s much-publicised Navakerala Sadas, the Congress-ruled Maradu municipality in Ernakulam is set to organise a similar Jana Sadas.
The Navakerala Sadas is set be held in Ernakulam district from December 7 to 10, while the Jana Sadas will be held for four days across four important locations in the municipality between November 28 and December 4 with a day’s break each in between.
The move comes close on the heels of the municipal council’s decision not to contribute ₹1 lakh towards the organisation of the Navakerala Sadas, thus defying a government order to that effect.
