"She's A Nobody": Kerala Congress Chief After Leader Questions Poll List

A woman Congress leader who voiced concern about insufficient female representation in the party’s Lok Sabha candidate lineup in Kerala was called “a nobody” by state party chief K Sudhakaran on Sunday, who brusquely dismissed the issue of representation when it was brought up. On Saturday, Congress National Spokesperson Shama Mohamed had expressed disappointment that the Congress party, which was the first to introduce the Women’s Reservation Bill, fielded only one woman candidate from Kerala for the upcoming LS polls even after the legislation was recently passed in Parliament (but not been made operational yet).
