Chandy rules out scope for compromise

By Our Staff Reporter

MALAPPURAM NOV. 22. The UDF convener, Oommen Chandy, has ruled out any scope for compromise in the factional feud in the Congress.

Talking to reporters here today, he said that a decision by the high command was expected by the first week of December. "Whatever the decision be, we (anti-Karunakaran group) will accept that'', he said.

He said that the ambition of the veteran Congress leader, K. Karunakaran, to form an alternative Government in association with CPI(M) would not materialise.

Mr. Chandy was in Malappuram to attend the Abdu Rahiman Sahib memorial meeting.

'Remove Murali'

Our Staff Reporter writes from Kochi:

The KPCC general secretary, Benny Behanan, has demanded that the KPCC president, K. Muraleedharan, who has been "hobnobbing with the CPI(M)" for decimating the Congress in the State should be removed from the post.

Addressing a press conference here on Saturday, Mr. Behanan said that the Congress could not move forward without removing Mr. Murali from the KPCC president's post.

The KPCC general secretaries, Joseph Vazhakkan and Ajay Tharayil, who participated in the press conference reiterated the demand for Mr. Murali's removal.
