Thiruvananthapuram: Minister of Public Education V Sivankutty and CPM rejected the opposition call to the resignation of the Minister after the Supreme Court rejected the government’s request to impose cases of LDF legislators in connection with the Ruckus case.
“There is no decision on the Minister.
There is no logic behind the argument that the Minister must resign because he will face the trial,” CPM Secretary of the CPM was Vijayaraghavan told reporters on Wednesday.
Overcoming a news conference at his residence, Sivankutty claimed that the Supreme Court did not enter the service of this case.
“As far as we know, the Supreme Court only discusses the constitutional angle in this case.
Politicians often face cases and trials as part of their political work.
I believe our innocence can be proven in the trial court.
There are no questions to stop the cabinet,” he said.
However, opposition leader V D Satheesan said there was quite a lot for the opposition to demand Sivankutty’s resignation.
“Sivankutty challenged the election and vowed the minister when the case remained.
Now, the Supreme Court has rejected all the arguments submitted by the government for permission to attract this case.
There is no moral foundation for the Minister to stay at the post,” he said.
Iuml leader P K Kunhalikty said there was no other assembly in this country who witnessed such events.
Not allowing a minister to enter the Assembly and create such a commotion never happened and the minister had to resign from that position, he said.
Former opposition leader Ramesh Chennithala, one of those who approached the court on the decision to withdraw this case, said that the SC command was a big setback for the government.
“The verdict is a milestone in the country’s democracy.
Has shown that the privilege of selected representatives is not to carry out criminal activities.
In fact, the government’s decision to withdraw this case is a challenge for the state legal system and order.
Sivankutty must step itself or the main minister must Looking for his resignation, “he said.
The central committee member of the CPM A K Balan said the opposition request for the resignation of the Minister did show the scarcity of topics in the opposition camp.
“There is nothing unusual in the court order that the person accused of in this case must undergo a trial,” he said.
