Bengaluru: PDP Chairman Abdunnasir Ma'dany who was granted permission to go to Kerala to visit his ailing mother, left Bengaluru on Friday early morning by road.
Though permission was granted on Thursday morning, his travel was delayed as the security arrangements were in place only late in the evening on Thursday.
Though it was planned earlier to travel by flight, a delay was feared as permission for the accompanying security personnel's journey with arms may pose problems at the airport.
It is expected that Ma'dany will reach Karunagapally by Friday evening. His wife Soofiya Ma'dany, PDP state general secretary Mohammed Rajeeb and two others are accompanying him.
Ma'dany will be staying in Kerala till 11th May.
