THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Close on the heels of remarks by Cardinal Varkey Vithayathil, president of Catholic Bishops Council of India and Major Archbishop of the Syro-Malabar Church, that Marxists were a bigger evil than BJP, an influential branch of the church has gone ahead and fielded its own candidates... Asked if the move wouldn’t be seen as the clergy meddling in politics, Eliyas said, ‘‘The issue is much bigger. Like any other community, we need our representatives to speak on issues of national importance. Both fronts have ignored us.’’ ... A week ago, nominees of Syro-Malabar, Syro-Malankara, Latin Catholic, Orthodox, CSI and Marthoma Church gathered to chalk out their plan. Latin Church Archbishop M Soosapakyam’s words left no one in doubt. ] 3:41 PM 4:54 PM
