The State committee of the ruling Left Democratic Front (LDF) has set October 12 as the deadline for the Kerala Congress (J) to come up with its Minister nominee.
The LDF leadership, which discussed the issue here on Monday, told the KC(J) leaders present at the meeting, including party chairman P.J. Joseph, that it could not allow the position allotted to the KC(J) in the Cabinet to remain vacant beyond October 12 as that would cause much embarrassment to the LDF and the government. The position has been remaining vacant for the last one month following the resignation of T.U. Kuruvilla as Public Works Minister. Mr. Kuruvilla himself had become Minister over a year ago when Mr. Joseph stepped down following allegations that he had misbehaved with a woman co-passenger while on a flight from Chennai to Kochi.
