Accusing Kerala Governor Arif Mohammed Khan of attempts to create maximum provocation in every issue, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan said that the Union Government should examine the propriety of the Governor’s repeated breaches of protocol. He was speaking to media persons at Pathanamthitta on December 17, on the sidelines of the Navakerala Sadas — a public outreach programme by the Left Democratic Front (LDF) Government.
“Earlier, I had said that the Governor is making wilful attempts to destroy the peaceful atmosphere of Kerala. Each of his actions in the following days in a way proved it right. The Governor often forgets the position that he occupies now, and makes comments unbecoming of that position,” said Mr. Vijayan.
He said that the Governor’s actions as the Chancellor were naturally bound to attract protests. The Chancellor is supposed to nominate persons to the University senate from the panel provided by the University, but he chose to nominate people from a list provided by the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS).
