"It was Congress that made me who I am today. That's why I painted the wall of my house with the promises made by the party in the Kerala election mfesto and the faces of party leaders I like. 'Nyay' scheme promised by the Congress is the main highlight of the painting on the walls. The face of the candidate from Vypin constituency, Deepak Joy, is also painted here," he added.
