    • He told the party-controlled TV channel Kairali that “I realised that me going for the RSS function was a mistake. It should not have taken place. I would not repeat the mistake”.  

       

      Padmalochan’s unconditional apology came a day before the Kollam district committee of the party would decide on whether the senior leader should be served with a disciplinary action. Soon after the incident, Kollam district secretary K Rajagopal had expressed the party’s displeasure over Padmalochan’s presence at the RSS function.

    • Under his leadership, the Kollam municipal corporation had allowed the Sangh Parivar to clean a public ground, where the RSS would hold their meeting.
    • However, RSS state joint secretary J Nandakumar said his organisation had invited the mayor as the head of the city. Several leaders from other political streams had attended the RSS functions in the past.
