Speaking to mediapersons here, Muraleedharan demanded that Kerala Revenue Minister K P Rajendran resign owning moral responsibility to or should be sacked by Chief minister V S Achuthanandan.

He said, "a probe by state agency would not bring out all facts of the scam related to appointments of six youths as clerks in the Revenue Department in Wayanad district without out appearing for Public Service Commission test and using fake PSC advice memo."

The state government had suspended two officials of Wayanad collectorate yesterday and ordered a vigilance probe into the scandal.
