Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Wednesday said Kerala would work with other States to move the Supreme Court against the Central government’s alleged trespasses on fiscal federalism.
Briefing reporters after a Cabinet meeting, Mr. Vijayan hinted that there was some merit in Congress Working Committee (CWC) member Shashi Tharoor’s statement the Central government fiscally discriminated against the southern States.
“It is true that the Centre shows financial inequity to some regions. Some States feel neglected and passed over for mega infrastructure development projects,” Mr. Vijayan said.
