Kalamassery municipal chairperson Jessy Peter is likely to step down this week following a directive from the State Congress leadership. Sources said that the decision by the chairperson to step down came after she met Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president Mullappally Ramachandran on Monday in Thiruvananthapuram.
The development is a fallout of the group quarrels within the Congress with the ‘I’ group reportedly insisting on the resignation of Ms. Peter.
However, the district leadership of the party has denied any differences of opinion within the party.
