Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan should apologise to people for SilverLine fallout: BJP

Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan should apologise to the people of Kerala for all the violent incidents and property destruction that took place in the name of land acquisition/survey for SilverLine in the State, BJP State president K. Surendran has said.

All of Mr. Vijayan’s claims over SilverLine so far have proven to be a farce and a lie now that the Union Railway Ministry has made it clear in the Kerala High Court that the Centre has not given sanction for the so-called “prestigious” project of the State government, said Mr. Surendran in a statement here on Tuesday.

Not only should Mr. Vijayan apologise to the people, he should also be prepared to give compensation to those who suffered losses in the violence that ensued with the police during the protests against SilverLine, he said.
