Only those who are directly or indirectly associated with Venugopal are included in the DCC list. Palode did not seek action against Ravi for trying to defeat him.

His style is to create sectarianism in the party. His wife fears that his life is in danger. Ravi liked acting. If she had acted in a film, she would have won an Oscar and a Bharat Award. Prashant had said yesterday that if Mullappally Ramachandran had been the KPCC president, Ravi would not have been made the DCC president.
