We adhere to equidistance policy, asserts K.M Mani

Thiruvananthapuram: Kerala Congress-M supremo K.M Mani Saturday has said his party is adhering to the policy of equidistance from both the UDF and LDF. 

“We don’t want to go after anyone. We are not intimidating anyone,” said Mani.

The already sour relations between the Kerala Congress-M and the Congress over the bar bribery scam sharpened recently after Congress leaders Oommen Chandy and Ramesh Chennithala attended the betrothal ceremony of the daughter of controversial hotelier Biju Ramesh with the son of Congress leader and former minister Adoor Prakash.

Biju Ramesh, working President of Kerala State Bar Hotel Owners Association, had levelled the bar bribery charge against Mani, which led to his resignation in November last year.

KC(M) has maintained that a "conspiracy" was behind the scam.
