Congress Suspends MLA Rahul Mamkootathil For 6 Months Over Sexual Misconduct Allegations | Read

The Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) on Monday suspended MLA Rahul Mamkootathil from the party's primary membership for six months following allegations of sexual misconduct.

The first action by the party came last week, when hours after the controversy surfaced, he was asked to step down as president of the Youth Congress, which he did. While the party stopped short of asking him to resign from the Assembly, the disciplinary action means the young MLA will not be able to participate in the upcoming legislative and party meetings.
