Apparently, Thomas will avoid travelling in first class on flights and will accept only those concessions which are available to senior citizens.
The leader’s decision comes in the wake of the allegations on social media that the government has been spending huge sums of money for its representative in Delhi.
KV Thomas, former union minister of state (Independent charge) for Food and Civil Supplies in the Manmohan Singh government, was appointed as the Kerala government’s special representative in New Delhi on January 18, 2023.
The leader is entrusted with coordinating centre-state communications and accelerating the activities of the state government in Delhi.
