The difference of opinion within the opposition United Democratic Front (UDF) over the Kerala government’s minority scholarships has come out in the open with the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) questioning the stance taken by Leader of the Opposition V D Satheesan.
While Satheesan has partially welcomed the new formula adopted by the government to restructure the minority student scholarship ration, the IUML is not at all in favour of the revised ratio.
IUML leader P K Kunhalikutty on Saturday said no political party other than the BJP can agree with the Pinarayi Vijayan government’s new formula which is based on population. He said he had spoken with Satheesan and the leader of the opposition has made it clear that he stands by the IUML’s stance on the matter. He said Satheesan could clarify his stance if needed.
