THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Probably for the first time in the history of the Kerala Legislative Assembly, an MLA, while speaking about Solar scam accused Saritha S Nair, referred to her as a prostitute. CPM Independent P V Anwar representing Nilambur constituency used the word “abhisarika” to describe Saritha during his maiden speech, while participating in a discussion on the motion of thanks to the Governor’s address.

Solar scam accused Saritha to come out with autobiography Case involving cheating of industrialist adjourned to July 19

Though the newly elected member might have been taking the leverage of Legislative immunity in calling a woman this term, shockingly, none of the members from the Treasury or Opposition benches objected.

There were several senior members present in the House, including ministers and former ministers and the opposition leader, when Anwar made the comment. None of them asked for the remarks to be expunged from records of the House. What’s more, B S Bijimol, who was chairing the session, did not take objection to it.
