Thiruvambady Devaswom Seeks Fresh Probe into Thrissur Pooram Disruption
Thiruvambady Devaswom, a key organiser of the Thrissur Pooram festival, has called for a fresh, impartial probe into the disruption of the event two years ago. Devaswom secretary K Girish Kumar denied responsibility, describing the Crime Branch report implicating them as erroneous and alleging a deliberate attempt to blame them. The Devaswom plans to meet Kerala's Chief Minister and relevant ministers to seek a fair investigation and decide further actions. The controversy follows ongoing debate over the original report's findings.
