The ruling CPI(M) in Kerala on Friday removed district panchayat president P P Divya on charges of her alleged role in the death of Additional District Magistrate Naveen Babu.
His remarks were in response to Govindan's description of Khan as a "caretaker Governor" two days earlier.
Director Shekhar Kapur once shared her story on Instagram and wrote: "It’s a story of courage no less than that of Bandit Queen."
CPI Kerala secretary Binoy Viswam on Saturday said that M R Ajith Kumar is no longer eligible to continue as ADGP, Law and Order, and he should be removed from the position.
Jayarajan said Kerala is a state where terrorists cannot extend their activities as the state government is vigilant.
The CPI-M spokesperson Sujan Chakraborty said that on visiting South 24-Parganas district where the Gangasagar Mela is held one will see that the district authorities are shutting down all markets and shops since according to them, small village shops will spread Covid but a massive Gangasagar Mela that will draw lakhs of pilgrims supposedly has no chances of spreading Covid.
“Where is the chief minister going to admit patients who will rush to hospitals in large numbers after being affected by Covid? The state government ought to control the situation now. Several pilgrims are not even wearing masks and here we are witnessing a spurt in everyday caseload. This seems like a deliberate action by the state to put the lives of citizens in jeopardy”
“It is understandable that the ruling party wants to loot votes to win the civic polls. By setting the polling date on 22 January, it gives us no time for campaigns. It was apparent that the decisions being taken by the state government are preposterous since after announcing that trains services will be stopped after 7 pm, the government was forced to extend it till 10pm. Chief minister does not care as long as her entertainment shows and Ganga Sagar mela continues but is ready to compromise when it comes to essential things such as elections, train services, educational institutions and transportation,”
“When the advocate general had earlier claimed in court that the Bill has been signed by the Governor who subsequently denied having signed it, we knew and warned that one of them is definitely lying. The AG has now admitted that he lied to the court and has sought more time. He must be arrested for lying in the court and removed from the post if the state government still has any dignity left.”
Asok Bhattacharya had said he was not willing to contest elections, but the party is of the opinion that he should contest. The people also want to see Mr Bhattacharya as a candidate. Therefore, he will be fielded from ward 6. Mr Bhattacharya had secured victory in the same ward during the last elections. We are hopeful that the Left Front will win by defeating the Trinamul Congress and the BJP and form the elected civic board this time also,"
