Being in the public eye is not new to #OommenChandy, 77. Barely a week from when #Kerala goes to polls, we met the former chief minister at his residence in Thiruvananthapuram. Early this year, Chandy was honored for completing 50 years as a legislator. Irrespective of the party in power, he has never lost his Puthuppally seat since 1970. He has also served as the chief minister twice, from 2004 to 2006 and again from 2011 to 2016. So he is, by any estimation, a major figure in Kerala’s politics.
In the interview with Nidhi Suresh and Aditya Varier, Chandy spoke about why the #Congress has fielded so few women in this election, the party's position on women entering the #Sabarimala temple, the disillusionment with Rahul Gandhi in #Wayanad, and what the #UDF will prioritise if they do come back to power.
