Cherian strongly criticized the Congress party, suggesting it should be dissolved and pointing out that its ordinary workers are undervalued. He sarcastically remarked on the "miracle" of Sudhakaran leaving CPM, adding that even if he himself were to depart, not even his wife would follow, as she remains committed to the party.
