The CPI (M) veteran had earlier alleged that more than 31 cases are pending against Chief Minister in the Supreme Court and over 136 corruption cases against pending against 18 UDF Ministers.
However, Chandy had slammed Achuthanandan and asked him to stop his 'lie campaign' and apologise for his 'blatant lies'.
"Achuthanandan is using his election campaign to spread blatant lies. He has stated that there were 31 cases pending against me in the apex court and 136 corruption cases against 18 UDF ministers," Chandy said.
In a statement issued in Thiruvananthapuram, Chandy said the opposition leader should make it clear which were the cases pending against him and his Cabinet colleagues.
