Ernakulam (Kerala) [India], September 1 (ANI): Kerala Congress chief K Sudhakaran on Sunday said that the Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) will investigate a complaint filed by the Mahila Congress against Simi Rose Bell John. The complaint concerns derogatory remarks made by John about Congress women leaders.
“Mahila Congress has filed a complaint against Simi Rose Bell John’s allegations. Simi made bad remarks against the leaders. Her allegations are baseless. KPCC will investigate the complaint filed by Mahila Congress,” Sudhakaran said.
Following her remarks, which were made in an interview with a private TV channel, John was expelled from the party.
The announcement was made in a press release by the Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) General Secretary M Liju, which stated that the KPCC President K Sudhakaran had “expelled former AICC member and PSC member Simi Rose Bell John from the primary membership of the party.”
The press release stated that John’s accusations were aimed at mentally harassing and defaming lakhs of women leaders and workers in the Congress movement, allegedly in collusion with political adversaries.
“Women leaders from the KPCC Political Affairs Committee, KPCC office bearers, and Mahila Congress State President, among others, had jointly requested the KPCC leadership to take action against her,” the release stated.
The release further stated that the party was convinced that Simi Rose Bell John’s actions constituted a serious breach of discipline, which led to disciplinary action.
In her reply to the charges by the Congress, Simi Rose Bell John in a news conference in Kochi lashed out at Congress LoP VD Sathesan saying, “Satheesan said that women who have dignity, pride, and dignity can not work in this party. A person who struggled for the party for some time was expelled.”
She also alleged that women of dignity could not work in the Congress party.
“If they have any evidence of what is being alleged it should be released. If there is a conspiracy with the CPIM party, the proof should be released. Women of dignity, pride, and nobility can not work in this party,” she said. (ANI)
