Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) State president K. Surendran has said the Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) inquiry into Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan’s daughter T. Veena’s IT firm will expose the corrupt activities of the leaders of both Left Democratic Front (LDF) and United Democratic Front (UDF).
Addressing a press conference after the National Democratic Alliance (NDA)’s Kerala Padayatra reached Attingal on Saturday, Mr. Surendran accused Leader of Opposition V.D. Satheesan and senior UDF leaders including Ramesh Chennithala and P.K. Kunhalikutty of having received kickbacks from corporate firms.
“The unholy nexus of LDF and UDF leaders are aimed at protecting the interests of such private firms. The government has been aiding these companies by not collecting tax arrears, which amounts to over ₹25,000 crore as recorded in the Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG) report,” he alleged.
