Thiruvananthapuram, June 10: In a bizarre incident, Indira Bhavan - the headquarters of the Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) has been put up for 'sale' on OLX on Saturday night at just Rs 10,000. The headquarters situated in Thiruvananthapuram has been grappling with giving the Rajya Sabha seat to Kerala Congress (Mani).
A close look at the picture on OLX states that a user named Aniesh has put up an advertisement and has pegged the place on sale at a price of Rs 10,000. Moreover, he has requested the buyers to contact the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) or KC(M) if someone wants to get their hands on the Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee headquarters.
According to a report by The News Minute, the dealer has described in detail the entire layout of the office in Velayambalam and stated that it was in a ‘ready to move’ condition for anyone who wishes to buy it.
In wake of the latest move, many have openly voiced their dissent against the party. About 6 MLAs expressed their disappointment in a letter addressing Congress President Rahul Gandhi. According to the report, the letter is endorsed by Congress MLAs including VT Balram, Shafi Parambil, Hibi Eden, Roji M John, KS Sabarinadhan and Anil Akkara.
They strongly protested on the Kerala leaders' decision to give away our Rajya Sabha seat to the Kerala Congress(M) party. The MLAs in the letter said that the move has hurt them and betrayed the sentiments of the ordinary Congress workers in Kerala.
