The Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) appeared to be agonising over Congress veteran K. V. Thomas's decision to attend a national seminar on "Challenges to Federalism" at the venue of the CPI(M) party congress in Kannur.
The Congress has viewed the move as a “flagrant violation” of a diktat from party president Sonia Gandhi. However, an anticipated furious denunciation of Prof. Thomas from the Congress is yet to come.
