Kerala CM doesn’t agree with criticism against state’s Covid handling

At a time when the Kerala government is drawing flak for its alleged failed Covid-19 management in view of high test positivity rate and increased daily cases, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has rejected the criticism

At a time when the Kerala government is drawing flak for its alleged failed Covid-19 management in view of high test positivity rate and increased daily cases, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has rejected the criticism terming it as “unwanted” and suspected it as attempts to undermine people’s support in its fight against the pandemic.

In an article published in the latest edition of “Chintha” weekly, one of the mouthpiece publications of the ruling CPI(M), he said a section in the society was making deliberate attempts to create confusion among people by criticising the state’s disease management strategies.

These moves were to trigger public sentiments against the government and thus create a situation in which the fight against the virus infection was viewed lightly by the people, he alleged.

The Chief Minister’s statement assumes significance as the opposition Congress-led UDF and BJP were demanding him to end silence as the daily Covid cases had crossed the 30,000-mark after an interval this week.
