Dear Sir We the impartial common people of Kerala, condemn in the strongest terms the attack on your young journalists by CPM Goondas at Kozhikode yesterday. We sympathize with those innocent young men who were doing their duty, and wish them a speedy recovery. But we don't sympathize with you as a media house because the 🐣 have come home 🏡 to roost. For the past five years, you have been a mouthpiece and running 🐶 of the CPM, colluding with them in a fruitless misadventure to unseat the Oommen Chandy government by hook or by crook, whereby you boosted their arrogance and their culture of violence. All along, you played second fiddle to the CPM 's vicious campaign to tarnish the image of Oommen Chandy, using fraudsters and whores who fabricated baseless corruption charges against him. Take for example Saritha. We don't understand the Solar Scam. As far as we know, that 👩 defrauded many people, in the name of Solar energy. But you elevated her to celebrity status...

Dear VS, Oommen Chandy, KM Mani and other politicians With boundless humility, and respect, we, the ordinary, impartial people of Kerala submit this for your kind consideration and favourable response. Today, in Kerala, a lot of people are experiencing high tension and stress due to the political upheavals that are unfolding every moment, as the preparations for the elections gather momentum. The tension is due to many deserving aspirants being denied seats to contest the elections. There are many leaders, across party lines,who are capable of becoming MLAs or ministers,but they don't get a chance in their lifetime, because the political equations are skewed against them. Meanwhile, there are veteran politicians like you who have been in the Assembly for ages. With all due respect and immense appreciation for the contribution you have made, it would be appropriate at these difficult times to suggest that you step down voluntarily to make room for the younger leaders and women ...
