Pinarayi Vijayan

Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan has been in the soup after The Hindu issued a clarification stating that some sentences were added in the interview at the request of the PR person who helped arrange the interview.

The Justice Hema Committee report included at least two witness statements that pertain to POCSO-related offences.

Kerala High Court noted that the Justice Hema Committee report was submitted to the government way back in 2019 and slammed the state government for its inaction.

Curiously, the chief secretary's note suggested that the government of Kerala is interested to promote only one type of scientific study, the ones that are about 'climate change' challenges for the state.

The Communist govt in Kerala has issued a bizarre order to all science and technology institutions in Kerala preventing them from visiting the disaster sites or sharing their opinion about the incident.

The Hume Centre for Ecology and Wildlife Biology in Kalpetta had issued a landslide warning for Mundakkai in Wayanad's Meppadi 15 hours before the huge landslide occurred that destroyed entire villages and killed over 160 people.

Reacting to Kerala government appointing a Secretary for External Cooperation, the Ministry of External Affairs said that foreign affairs are the "sole prerogative" of the Union Government and not concurrent or state subject

The move is also seen as an attempt to usurp the powers of the Union government, posing a serious threat to federalism and the democratic process in the country.

A petition filed in Kerala HC has demanded a probe against CM Pinarayi Vijayan, his daughter Veena, over the alleged financial transactions between her now-defunct IT firm and a private mining company.

Other than CM Vijayan, left-backed independent MLA PV Anvar took a dig at Rahul Gandhi saying that the Congress leader has no right to use Gandhi surname and that his DNA should be tested.
