Palmolein import case,in which CVC PJ Thomas is an accused, was a result of "personal

vendetta".

Kerala HC

The Kerala High Court had last month asked the state government to

consider banning toddy but reversed this on Thursday, with the

government assuring it would ensure the supply of quality toddy.

One reason why the courts observation caused distress was that many

women in central Kerala districts.
