The Story in Brief
Leaders of the Indian Union Muslim League have protested after a person associated with Jamaat-e-Islami was appointed to the personal staff of a Kerala minister. They asked why the minister chose a Jamaat-e-Islami associate when the League's own organisational units had recommended names that were disregarded. The appointment has caused friction within the ruling front in Kerala. No official response from the minister has been reported.
The Indian Opinion
This protest seems like much ado about a single appointment. Both the Muslim League and Jamaat-e-Islami are minority groups with different agendas. The real test will be whether this issue destabilises the ruling coalition or is resolved quietly. Watch for the minister's response and whether the staffer stays.
