Congress district panchayat member Sreenadevi Kunjamma is caught in a fresh controversy after a complaint alleged that she added her name to another person’s ration card using false documents. The Adoor police have now sought a report from the rationing inspector to proceed further. The complaint, filed by Communist Party of India (CPI) leader T. Murugesh, also claimed that her name was added to the ration card as the ‘daughter of the cardholder’s husband’s sister,’ even though the cardholder’s husband did not have a sister.It also raised questions about her inclusion on the voters’ list, siting that Ms. Kunjamma originally hailed Kollam and that she had no permanent address in Pathanamthitta. Ms. Kunjamma denied the allegations, calling them a conspiracy by the CPI. “This is an attempt to settle scores because I joined the Congress and defeated the CPI,” she said. She added that she has lived in Pathanamthitta since her school days and the complainants are her relatives. She also warned of legal action against the taluk supply officer who cancelled her ration card. A former leader of CPI, Ms. Kunjamma previously served as the district panchayat member from Pallikkal Division representing the party. After disagreements with the party leadership, she resigned just before the local body elections, joined the Congress and won the Pallikkal seat once again as a UDF candidate.
