Dispute Between K.B. Ganesh Kumar and NSS Leadership Over Governance and ProtocolsPreviousNext

A public dispute has emerged between former Kerala Minister K.B. Ganesh Kumar and Nair Service Society (NSS) general secretary G. Sukumaran Nair. Kumar, removed from NSS leadership roles, accused the organisation of corruption, nepotism, and undemocratic practices, including denying VIPs access to Mannam Samadhi. Nair refuted these claims, asserting his legitimate election and defending NSS's policies, including its stance on political neutrality and security protocols at Mannam Samadhi.
