The Kerala Congress (Joseph) faction has publicly opposed the state government's proposal to carve out a new district centred on Muvattupuzha.
Kerala Congress (Joseph) has formally voiced its objection to the government's suggestion of forming a separate Muvattupuzha district. The party's statement emphasized that the proposal lacks adequate consultation with local stakeholders.
The reorganisation plan aims to create a new administrative unit centred on the town of Muvattupuzha, which currently falls within Ernakulam district. Officials have hinted that the move could streamline governance and improve service delivery, but details remain under discussion.
By opposing the scheme, the Kerala Congress (Joseph) seeks to protect the interests of its constituency and urges the state to reconsider the boundaries before any final decision is taken.
