Kerala Congress Expels Simi Rose Bell John Over 'Casting Couch' Allegations

The expelled leader plans to approach Sonia Gandhi, challenging the party's stance on her claims and seeking justice.

Simi Rose Bell John alleges a 'casting couch' culture within the Kerala Congress, claiming only those close to senior leaders get opportunities.
She was expelled for allegedly defaming and harassing women leaders, with the party accusing her of colluding with political adversaries.
Bell John denies the accusations, demanding evidence of collusion and vowing to fight for justice.
The controversy comes amid sexual assault charges in Kerala's film industry, which Bell John referenced in her statements.
Senior BJP leaders criticized the Congress for not investigating Bell John's claims, accusing the party of double standards.
