In a heated political rally held on March 30, 2026 in Pathanamthitta, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of exerting control over the Chief Minister of Kerala. During his speech, Gandhi alleged that the ruling party had interfered unduly in the state’s political affairs.
The remarks were made amidst ongoing speculation about the upcoming assembly elections scheduled for later this year. The Pathanamthitta rally was attended by a significant crowd, with many expressing their support for Gandhi and his claims.
In addition to the allegations against the BJP, two separate incidents were reported in Aluva on the same day. An unidentified man died under mysterious circumstances, adding another layer of tension to an already politically charged atmosphere in Kerala.
The Congress party has been actively campaigning across various districts of Kerala, including Thiruvananthapuram, Pathanamthitta, and Kasaragod. Their efforts are focused on challenging the incumbent BJP government and regaining control of the state.
Meanwhile, Kerala Tourism continues to promote the state’s rich cultural heritage and scenic beauty through various campaigns. A recent video showcasing a Kumarakom village tour has been well-received by both locals and tourists.
