Kerala's Political Stir: Kharge Accuses CM of Playing Puppet to Modi Government

Karnataka Minister Priyank Kharge accuses Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan of colluding with PM Modi, alleging BJP's proxy rule in Kerala. Kharge highlights CM's silence on scandals and absence of central raids, asserting that Vijayan operates as Modi's puppet. He predicts Congress and UDF's political resurgence in Kerala.

Accusations have been leveled against Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan by Karnataka Minister Priyank Kharge, who claims Vijayan is colluding with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Kharge alleges that the Left Democratic Front (LDF) government is allowing the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to exert control over Kerala by proxy.

Kharge criticized the Chief Minister for prioritizing social greetings over addressing serious issues like the Sabarimala gold scandal. He questioned why no central agency raids occur despite allegations and compared this to actions taken against opposition leaders in other states.

The Congress leader further dismissed CPI(M)'s claims of triumphing over BJP, predicting a victory for Congress and the UDF in the upcoming elections, with promises of revitalizing Kerala's economy and restoring its 'God's own country' reputation.
