A section of industry and citizens’ organisations in the State capital have urged political parties to fulfil the promise they had purportedly made to reinstate the High Court Bench in Thiruvananthapuram without further delay.
In a statement, Trivandrum Chamber of Commerce and Industry (TCCI) president S.N. Raghuchandran Nair bemoaned the lack of action from the State and Central governments, and the Opposition in realising the demand.
“The promise of restitution of the High Court Bench has become a mere ritual in election manifestos. Once the elections are over, not only is there a noticeable lack of action and progress, but political parties also conveniently forget the commitment. The people of the capital cannot be hoodwinked and can see through the empty promises,” he said, while cautioning that the people will come together against the alleged indifference in the upcoming elections.
