Viral video puts CPI(M) on the spot over Kerala MLA Joys 'threat' remarks
Digital Desk | Thiruvananthapuram, Oct 2 (IANS) The controversy over CPI(M) Thiruvananthapuram district secretary and three-time MLA V. Joys remarks against a police officer has intensified, with the video of his statement going viral and strong reactions emerging against the conduct of the senior party leader. Joy was heard telling Cantonment Assistant Commissioner V. Jayachandran during a party supporters march on Thursday that a murder would happen if they continued to be troubled by Sub-Inspector Gokul of the Cantonment police station. The remark, made in the presence of senior CPI(M) leaders, including Kadakampally Surendran and Anavoor Nagappan, has triggered criticism because it came from a sitting MLA and the district secretary of the ruling party. Joy, however, denied that he had issued a death threat. The controversy comes at a particularly sensitive time for the CPI(M), which has been engaged in a public exercise of introspection following its electoral setbacks. The party leadership has called for changes in the conduct of leaders and cadres, greater humility in dealings with people and a conscious effort to overcome the perception of arrogance and distance from the masses. The latest episode has therefore brought renewed attention to the question of whether the corrective measures being discussed within the party are finding expression in the conduct of its leaders. The immediate dispute arose after police entered the University Mens Hostel on Wednesday night, following clashes involving SFI and Youth Congress activists. The CPI(M) and SFI have alleged that Cantonment Inspector Satheesh Kumar and Sub-Inspector Gokul assaulted SFI activists and have demanded action against them. Police have a different account of the circumstances surrounding the clashes, with cases registered against activists from different groups. The protests escalated on Thursday, with CPI(M) and SFI activists marching to the Secretariat demanding action against the two officers. SFI leaders had also warned that the police personnel would be confronted on the streets. The controversy has now moved beyond the original police action, with attention focused on the language used by senior political leaders against serving police personnel. The situation has also raised law-and-order concerns. Police security was tightened at the residence of Inspector Satheesh Kumar in Myladi, Kattakada, following threats and cyber attacks targeting the two officers. For the CPI(M), the episode presents an uncomfortable political question -- whether its call for self-correction, restraint and a more people-friendly approach can be reconciled with the public conduct of its senior leaders. With the video continuing to circulate, the remarks are unlikely to remain confined to the political protest that triggered them. More importantly, with the upcoming Assembly session commencing next week, the Satheesan government will use this against the CPI(M).

Passenger tries to open planes emergency exit at Hyderabad airport
Digital Desk | Hyderabad, Oct 2 (IANS) An alleged attempt by a passenger to open the emergency door of an aircraft while it was preparing to take off created a scare at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport, Shamshabad in Telangana. The incident occurred in the early hours of Friday when passengers were boarding the IndiGo flight to Kadapa, Andhra Pradesh. After the airline staff alerted the authorities, the passenger was deboarded. He was later handed over to the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RGIA) Police. According to police, during the boarding process, the passenger was shifted from the 9th row to the 2nd row, which is an emergency exit seating area. While settling in, he touched the emergency exit handle, triggering a security sensor alarm. A case has been registered at the RGIA Police Station. The passenger told the police that he unintentionally touched the emergency exit handle. Further investigations were ongoing. On August 6, a traveller allegedly damaged an emergency exit window panel and attempted to tamper with the emergency exit door while the aircraft was preparing to land at Kochi airport. The incident occurred aboard Kuala Lumpur-Kochi Batik Air flight OD231. Police arrested the passenger, identified as Jamsheer Athanikkal. He was booked under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita Section 351 (criminal intimidation), the Aircraft Act Section 11A (failure to comply with any direction issued) and the Kerala Police Act Section 118(e) (knowingly does any act which causes danger to the public or failure in public safety). The latest incident at RGIA came just a couple of days after the attack on the flydubai flight Captain by a co-pilot in an alleged attempt to hijack the Dubai-Tel Aviv flight. The co-pilot was overpowered by some passengers who entered the cockpit after the pilot, Captain Smit Machchhar, raised an alarm. Two flydubai pilots travelling as passengers helped land the aircraft. According to reports, the plane dropped 17,400 feet in just under two minutes. The flight was diverted to Tabuk airport in northern Saudi Arabia. The Indian pilot, who was injured in the attack, is being hailed as a hero for thwarting the suspected hijacking attempt.

High command will take call, says Sunny Joseph on Kerala UDF convenor's attack on CM Satheesan
Digital Desk | Kannur, Oct 2 (IANS) Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president and State Power Minister Sunny Joseph on Friday refused to react publicly to UDF convenor and Congress MP Adoor Prakashs open criticism of Chief Minister V.D. Satheesan, saying that any grievance should be raised within the party forums. This was Sunnys first response after Prakash launched a sharp attack on the Chief Ministers style of functioning on Thursday and alleged that the UDF was not being consulted on important matters. Speaking to the media at his home turf in Kannur, Sunny said Prakash had already made it clear that he would take his grievances to the All India Congress Committee (AICC). Now he himself has said that he will do so. Let it happen, Sunny said. He pointed out that it was the AICC that had appointed Prakash to his present position and that the partys central leadership would take a decision on the matter. It was the AICC which appointed him. They will take the call, Sunny said. Sunny made it clear that he did not intend to enter into a public debate over the differences raised by Prakash. I will not make any comments on this in the public domain. If I have to say anything, I will say it in the party forums, he said. Speaking to the media on Friday, Prakash said his criticism was based on his own experience and that he had not sought the support of anyone before making the remarks. I had said everything that needed to be said yesterday, Prakash said, maintaining that his response was made in his individual capacity and that he had not consulted anyone. He also pointed out that the UDF had met only once in the past four months. There are no problems in the UDF. What I said is a reality. I did not make the remarks seeking anyones support. I will directly convey my complaint to the AICC, Prakash said. Prakash also said he was not opposed to giving positions to leaders such as M.K. Muneer or G. Devarajan, whom he described as good leaders. His objection, he said, was that certain consultations had not taken place. I stand by what I said. Let anyone reject my statements, he said. Prakash also maintained that he had no personal dispute with Satheesan, but added that the Chief Ministers approach was visible to everyone and could be assessed by them. The contrasting responses from the two senior Congress leaders have brought the issue into the partys internal forum, with Prakash opting to approach the AICC and Sunny making it clear that he would not discuss the matter publicly. Reading between the lines, the reaction of cabinet colleagues of Satheesan, including K. Muraleedharan and A.P. Anil Kumar, without breaking any rules, was seen as expressing their dissent against Prakash. Veteran Congress leader A.K. Antony, who arrived at the state party headquarters, said he does not react to any issue these days. Deputy Speaker of the Kerala Assembly Shanimol Usman said that in the best interest, it would be good to allow a good growth for the three-month-old baby.
