Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has said that handling “social waste” is just as important as physical waste while referring to communalism that maligns the entire society.
When attempts are being made to communalise faith, it is important to be able to differentiate between faith and communalism. Converting things associated with faith into symbols and slogans of violent communalism should be resisted.
Mr. Vijayan was delivering the inaugural address at a face-to-face with women held at the convention centre of the Cochin International Airport Limited in Kochi on February 22. He said that families, including women, should ensure that even children are able to put up such resistance.
