Thiruvananthapuram: The Oommen Chandy faction of the Congress party's Kerala unit yesterday expressed its unhappiness over the way the party high command has been handling the affairs of the state unit.
Party's Kerala unit Vice-President and former state minister M M Hassan, speaking to reporters yesterday, pointed out that the manner in which the high command went about naming the 14 district party chiefs last week was not in keeping with the normal practice.
"When the list came out, it became very clear that one faction had been given the upper hand and this has been brought to the notice of the high command also," said Hassan.
