CMRL-Exalogic case: Kerala BJP leader claims 'diary' names Satheesan, Chennithala, Vijayan; seeks CBI probe

Digital Desk | Thiruvananthapuram, Sep 24 (IANS) A page purportedly from the diary of CMRL Managing Director S. Sasidharan Kartha, now in the possession of investigators, has triggered a fresh political controversy after BJP state vice-president Shone George claimed that it contains the names of several senior leaders of both the ruling UDF and the Opposition Left. George, who has been pursuing the CMRL-Exalogic case for the past three years, first released a photograph of the page on social media with the question: Why is there no Vigilance probe? The figures on this page provide answers to several questions. At a press conference on Thursday, he went further, claiming that the page has the names of Chief Minister V.D. Satheesan, Home Minister Ramesh Chennithala, Ministers K. Muraleedharan and Shibu Baby John, besides senior leaders from both political fronts. The list also includes Pinarayi Vijayan, his former cabinet colleague P. Rajeev, K. B. Ganesh Kumar and veteran CPI(M) leaders, including Elamaram Kareem, State CPI(M) secretary M.V. Govindan and other Left leaders. George alleged that the entries indicate payments made to the politicians, including an entry of Rs 5 lakh against Satheesans name. The allegations have not been independently established merely by the diary entries, and the context and nature of each payment would have to be established through investigation. The disclosure comes days after the state government decided to conduct a preliminary inquiry through a Crime Branch Special Investigation Team into information shared by the Enforcement Directorate regarding the CMRL-Exalogic transactions. The decision followed legal advice obtained by the government after the ED wrote to the state police chief seeking action in connection with alleged offences under the Prevention of Corruption Act. George questioned why the matter was entrusted to the Crime Branch instead of the Vigilance and Anti-Corruption Bureau and demanded that the entire matter be handed over to the CBI. He alleged that Chennithala, as Home Minister, had deliberately chosen the Crime Branch route instead of a Vigilance investigation. Chennithala, however, has said the government acted on the Advocate General's legal opinion and that the ED's information could not simply be ignored. The latest controversy also brings renewed attention to the earlier investigations into CMRL. The Kerala High Court, in its June 2026 judgment, recorded that the Ministry of Corporate Affairs ordered an investigation into CMRL in January 2024 and subsequently entrusted it to the Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO). The court also recorded that the Income Tax Settlement Commission had upheld findings relating to inflated expenses, generation of cash for alleged illegal payments and a purported Rs 1.72-crore payment to Veena Vijayan and Exalogic despite no services being rendered. The page released by George was described by him as one of the documents submitted before the court by the SFIO. With the ED-triggered state police inquiry now set to begin, the new diary disclosure has triggered a second political question: whether the Crime Branch preliminary inquiry will examine the wider list of alleged political payments or remain confined to the specific material referred by the ED.

Incorporate AI into curriculum: CM Omar

Srinagar, Sept 23: Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Wednesday said the government is focusing on improving the education system so that children are better prepared to face the challenges of a rapidly changing world, and emphasised the need to incorporate emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence into the curriculum and equip students with the knowledge and skills required for the future. Addressing the award ceremony of the ALOHA National Level Competition-2026 Kashmir at SKICC here, the Chief Minister also called for taking the ALOHA mental arithmetic programme to government schools in Jammu and Kashmir, stressing the need to provide children across the education system a level playing field and equip them with skills to compete nationally and internationally. The Chief Minister said education and health remain the two foremost responsibilities of the government and stressed that sustained investment in these sectors is essential for the overall development of the region. Education is the foundation of everything. Without education, what can we achieve? Education and health: without these two things, there is no point in getting anything else, he said. Highlighting the challenge of student retention, Omar Abdullah said Jammu and Kashmir performs well at the primary and middle-school levels in comparison with the national scenario, but the retention rate declines significantly as students progress to higher classes. He emphasised that secondary schools need to take concrete steps to bring down the school dropout rate. The Chief Minister stressed that government and private schools should work together rather than view each other as competing systems. He said children studying in both government and private schools are equally the future of Jammu and Kashmir and called for policies that enable private educational institutions to contribute effectively to the education ecosystem. Referring to the legislation on private universities this year, Omar Abdullah said the initiative was aimed at creating opportunities within Jammu and Kashmir so that students do not have to leave the region in search of quality private higher education. The Chief Minister expressed appreciation for the enthusiasm and performance of the participating students and the participation of children from different parts of Jammu and Kashmir, other parts of the country and abroad. He said the participation of students from places such as Kerala, Karnataka and Rajasthan, along with international participants, in the competition in Srinagar was a positive indication of the growing educational and cultural connect with Jammu and Kashmir. You are all winners. Whether you took back a trophy from here or not, just being here and being able to compete is a victory and is a win, he said. Omar Abdullah said the government would explore taking the ALOHA programme forward in government schools to give students wider access to such learning opportunities. This is something that we need to incorporate into the government school system as well, so that we give our children a level playing field, he said, adding that efforts would be made to expand the ALOHA family in Jammu and Kashmir. Advisor to the Chief Minister Nasir Aslam Wani, Director School Education Kashmir Naseer Ahmed Wani, Founder and President ALOHA Loh Mun Sung, Director International ALOHA Kiran Motwani, MD ALOHA J&K Mubashir Wafai, besides teachers, students and parents, were present on the occasion.
