Wayanad Landslides: Congress leader Chennithala's salary donation to CMDRF draws flak from party chief

Senior Congress leader Ramesh Chennithala has pledged to donate one month's MLA salary to the Chief Minister's Distress Relief Fund for Wayanad landslide victims. This move sparked criticism from state party chief K Sudhakaran, who argued that contributions should be directed to funds managed by the Congress rather than the CPI(M)-led state government’s fund.
