The New Indian Express Kottayam|January 07, 2025

Jose said none had been tasked with setting the political agenda of the KC(M).

"A power struggle for leadership is going on within the UDF. In order to hide this conflict, there is a concerted move to spread misinformation that the KC(M) will be switching alliances. Despite repeatedly affirming the political stance of KC(M), some are spreading the same baseless news. Nevertheless, some people have now realized that KC(M) was the backbone of UDF politics," Jose said.
