One more January 25/26 has passed when Alwaye appeared to be a town where the insurgents laid siege.What for?Just for satisfying the false prestige of Thomas I Mafriana to enter Thrikkunnathu Seminary where he is not legally entitled to enter.If HB is so desirous of offering prayers at the tomb there in all that is required is to formally request the Catholics for permission and prayers can be offered jointly at the tomb of the 4 Bishops of whom at least 3 are common to Orthodox Church and Jacobite faction..

But the events of 25th Jan has proved that the real intention was not prayers,but to score a vanity point.

As HB and a few others entered the Seminary,there were fireworks from all four sides of the seminary.Is that the way we offer prayers at the tombs of Bishops?How is it that the Kukkilion Makkalilappan used for theDhoopaprarthana of Episcopas?How is that Kappa is worn without the white robe under it?

Actually ,HB Thomas I has disgraced the Bishops whose mortal remains are laid to rest at Thrikkunnathu Seminary

In order to satisfy the vanity of one person the town of Alwaye is being turned into a Garrison of security forces.Saner people in Jacobite faction are not interested in this farce as evidenced by the turnout of less than 500 people coming at the time allotted for the Jacobite faction.
