Opposition stages walkout over corruption in import of cashew nuts from Africa

Thiruvananthapuram, Jun 20 (UNI) Opposition Congress-led United Democratic Front members on Thursday staged a walkout from Kerala Assembly in protest against denial of an adjournment motion on alleged corruption in the import of raw cashew nuts from African countries.
Seeking the leave of the House to move the adjournment motion in this regard, Congress member Thiruvanchoor Radhakrishnan said norms were flouted to import the raw cashew from African nations like Guinea-Bissau and Burkino Faso.
The advertisements for importing cashew were given only in the local newspapers of African nations to help middlemen, he added.
