Kerala Governor Arif Mohammed Khan’s ‘uncustomary’ attack on the government set off ripples across the State’s political spectrum.
Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan termed Mr. Khan’s ‘stream of invective’ against the government and socialist ideology, ‘anti-communist’ propaganda.
Addressing a public meeting in Kannur, Mr. Vijayan said Mr. Khan was entitled to his political views. But as Governor, the Constitution demanded he remained above the fray. Mr. Vijayan urged him not to stoop to the level of Opposition politicians.
