On Wednesday, Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan criticized the recent demolition drive at Turkman Gate in Delhi, comparing it to the horrors of the Emergency period.

The anti-encroachment operation near the Faiz-e-Elahi mosque at Ramlila Maidan incited violence, with many pelting stones at police after a social media post alleged demolition activities.

Vijayan took to the social media platform 'X' to condemn the act, stating it was part of a divisive ideology executed by the BJP, and called for secular forces to resist such actions.
