Kerala UDF Convenor Adoor Prakash Criticizes CM Satheesan Over Decision-Making
Senior Congress leader and UDF convener Adoor Prakash publicly expressed dissatisfaction with Kerala Chief Minister V.D. Satheesan's governance, citing a lack of consultation and coordination within the ruling front. Prakash said he learned of key government decisions, including high-profile appointments, through the media rather than internal discussions. While he did not question the appointees' eligibility, he criticized the unilateral decision-making and stalled UDF meetings. Prakash plans to raise these concerns with the Congress high command amid growing internal tensions within the UDF government.
