Kerala Excise Minister K Babu resigned hours after the vigilance court in Thrissur asked the Vigilance & Anti-Corruption Bureau to register a case against him in the bar bribery scandal.

Babu, a senior Congress leader and a loyalist of Chief Minister Oommen Chandy, is the second minister in the Congress-led UDF government to quit office in relation to the scam. In November last year, Kerala Congress (M) chairman K M Mani had resigned as finance minister after the high court upheld the order of the vigilance court, Thiruvananthapuram, for further probe in the case.
