Ernakulam: Following the allegations of sexual abuse against actor-turned-politician M Mukesh, a group of 100 women activists in Kerala released a joint statement on Wednesday, calling for his resignation as the Kollam MLA. So far, three women artists have come forward with sexual abuse accusations against Mukesh.

The women's collective demanded Mukesh should step down from his position, given the gravity of the allegations against him. They urged the government to remove him from office if he refused to resign. "Mukesh had been accused of various offences in both his personal and public life, including domestic violence, rape, and workplace sexual harassment," the statement read.

The statement also demanded that Mukesh be removed from the committee responsible for formulating a film policy. However, following widespread protests against him, the government removed Mukesh from the panel on Wednesday. The ten-member committee, set up by the state government, initially included Mukesh along with Manju Warrier, B Unnikrishnan, Padmapriya, Rajeev Ravi, Nikhila Vimal, Santosh Kuruvila, and C Ajoy.
