The Raj Bhavan sent the invitation letters on Saturday, inviting them to take part in the Christmas celebrations to be held at 5pm on December 14. Last year, the Governor’s Christmas celebration had seen the participation of religious leaders only.

The Governor’s invitation to the Chief Minister and Ministers is being seen as a ‘sweet revenge’ for not inviting him for the government functions held as a part of the Onam celebration this year.
