He said both were extended formal invitations after they jointly flagged off a BJP development march led by him in Thrissur.
Gopalakrishnan praised the duo, saying, “You are individuals with integrity and public spirit—ideal for serving society. The BJP wishes that people like you contest the Assembly elections. Our doors are open to all who want to contribute positively.”
Ouseppachan, who has earlier appeared on RSS platforms, participated in the development march led by Gopalakrishnan, signalling his growing proximity to the BJP. Fakrudheen Ali also attended the inaugural function of the march in support of Gopalakrishnan.
