Allegations against Oommen Chandy fabricated, K. Babu tells court

Former Minister and Congress leader K. Babu on Wednesday testified before the Kottarakkara Judicial First Class Magistrate Court that the allegations against former Chief Minister Oommen Chandy were entirely fabricated as part of a political conspiracy orchestrated by former minister K.B. Ganesh Kumar. The testimony was recorded in a lawsuit filed by advocate Sudheer Jacob regarding the alleged plot behind the solar scam.

Mr. Babu testified that following K.B. Ganesh Kumar’s resignation from the cabinet over domestic disputes, Oommen Chandy declined to reinduct him due to objections from his father, R. Balakrishna Pillai, and a complaint from Biju Radhakrishnan, husband of Saritha S. Nair.
