In a significant development, senior CPI(M) leader and former minister K K Shailaja has demanded the resignation of party MLA M Mukesh if he is found guilty of alleged crimes.
Shailaja, a prominent figure in Kerala politics, emphasized that while the investigation into the allegations against Mukesh is still in its initial stages, he would not be eligible to continue as a legislator if found guilty. She made this statement while addressing the media, as quoted by news agency PTI.
Shailaja’s stance reflects the growing pressure on Mukesh to step down amidst serious allegations. The CPI(M) is currently facing a challenging situation, navigating the need to uphold its principles while also ensuring a fair investigation. It remains to be seen how this unfolding situation will impact the party’s standing in the state.
