Thiruvananthapuram: Congress leader Cherian Philip has said that Youth Congress President Rahul Mangootli may become the Chief Minister of Kerala in the future if the CPI(M) administration traps him in a false case and brutally hunts him down.
Cherian Philip said that those who have been subjected to brutal attacks by CPI(M) have become Chief Ministers.
