Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has on Friday said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s statement that BJP will form government in Kerala too is an “excessive wish”. He said the minorities facing harassment from the Sangh Parivar cannot take a pro-BJP stance.

In a statement here, Pinarayi Vijayan said the people of the state know very well through their intense experiences the difficulties being experienced by minorities, they also know as to who are responsible for this state of affair of the minorities. The minorities facing severe harassment from the Sangh Parivar cannot take a pro-BJP stance.

“It would be absurd to think that the compromises that a few people making for the sake of some temporary gains, are the general nature of the minorities,” he said.

Stating that the state has always made it clear that communal forces will have no place on the soil of Kerala, chief minister Vijayan said the Kerala model of secularism will take root in the entire country in the coming days.

Elated over the BJP’s victory in the Assembly polls in Tripura, Nagaland and Meghalaya, Prime Minister Narendra Modi predicted the formation of a BJP-alliance government in the coming days in Left-ruled Kerala also on the same pattern.

Scoffing at the CPI-M -Congress alliance that contested the Tripura polls, PM Modi  said that these parties are ‘plundering’ Kerala.

“I am confident that in coming days, the BJP alliance will form the government in Kerala the way we are forming the government in Tripura, Meghalaya and Nagaland,” Prime Minister Modi said.

Modi said that now the fear created by the Opposition amongst the minorities against the BJP is also vanishing and getting exposed. “The minority in Goa and Nagaland supported the BJP; they will continue supporting the BJP in other states also. They’ve realised how they were misled by some parties against the BJP earlier,” he said.
