Governor Khan asked his security staff to take the photographs of the SFI banners, which referred to the Governor as a ‘Sanghi’ and demanded that he should go back.

Meanwhile, Calicut University Vice Chancellor Prof Jayaraj reached the Guest House on the campus where the Governor is staying.

The Raj Bhavan issued a press release strongly condemning the displaying of the SFI banner at Calicut University and strongly criticized Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, alleging that he is behind the banners put up by the SFI against the Governor.
