Derek O'Brien and Mahua Moitra of the All India Trinamool Congress visited IUML's Sadiq Ali Shihab Thangal in Kerala. They emphasized it as a 'friendly visit' with no political discussions. Former MLA P V Anvar, now a TMC convener, corroborated this, although strengthening political ties was discussed.

On Saturday, All India Trinamool Congress Rajya Sabha leader Derek O'Brien and Lok Sabha MP Mahua Moitra paid a visit to the residence of Indian Union Muslim League leader Panakkad Sadiq Ali Shihab Thangal in Kerala. The duo is on a two-day trip to the state.

According to Thangal, the meeting was described as merely a 'friendly visit' devoid of political discussions. Both leaders are part of the INDIA bloc, and the significance of strengthening the alliance was noted ahead of the upcoming elections.

Accompanied by former MLA P V Anvar, who has transitioned to being the TMC convener, discussions centered on general national politics, acknowledging potential collaboration with UDF. The leaders plan to explore key issues in Manjeri during their visit.
