THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Ammalu Amma, an elderly woman from Paravur, arrived in Thiruvananthapuram with two simple dreams: to see her “son” V. D. Satheeshan sworn in as Chief Minister and to wrap him in a motherly embrace.
By the end of the ceremony, she had fulfilled both wishes and more. Guided onto the stage by Congress workers after her story caught the attention of a news channel, she not only hugged Satheeshan but also shared a heartfelt moment with Rahul Gandhi, thanks to Satheeshan introducing her as family.
Their bond goes back to the catastrophic floods in Kerala, when Satheeshan, then MLA of Paravur, extended crucial help to Ammalu Amma. Since then, she has cherished him as her son, keeping in touch over the years.
Her journey from Paravur to the capital was rewarded with joy and recognition. Beaming with pride, Ammalu Amma stood on stage, her embrace symbolizing not just personal affection but the deep trust between a leader and the people.
