Press Trust of India Thiruvananthapuram
CPI-M led LDF in Kerala has decided to intensify the on-going agitation demanding the resignation of Chief Minister Oommen Chandy and a judicial probe into the 'Solar panel scam' case.

Vehicle campaign rallies, protest demonstration before the selected state government offices and public meetings to press for Chandy's resignation and judicial probe would be held in coming days, front Convener Vaikom Viswam told reporters here today.

LDF was of the view that only a judicial probe would bring the truth out as 'it happened with the knowledge of Chief Minister', Viswam said.

He alleged that Congress-led UDF Government was trying to suppress using police force the agitation of LDF feeder outfits across the state.
 

The scam pertains to extensive fraudulent deals indulged in by a firm run by one Saritha Nair and her friend Biju Radhakrishnan by luring clients for solar panel installation schemes.

A personal assistant and gun-man of Chandy were removed from their duties after it was found that they had made frequent telephone talks with the accused Saritha Nair.
