Kochi, Mar 15 (IANS): A day after Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan attacked Rahul Gandhi for remaining silent on the CAA, Leader of the Opposition (LoP) V. D. Satheesan on Friday said the Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan is attacking Rahul Gandhi only to appease Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
“Rahul Gandhi is facing cases in 12 states, as he is fighting BJP. All these cases have been lodged in BJP-ruled states. Vijayan’s game plan is clear that is to appease BJP and its leadership and that is why he is attacking Rahul Gandhi,” the LoP said.
He said that the people know what Vijayan is up to. “He is doing all this to divert attention from his misgovernance,” the LoP said.
On Thursday, the Chief Minister while interacting with the media persons, attacked Rahul Gandhi and other senior Congress leaders for not raising their voice against CAA.
Veteran Congress legislator Ramesh Chennithala on Friday said the Chief Minister Vijayan is shedding crocodile tears on CAA and his only aim is to appease the BJP.
“Due to the attitude of Vijayan towards the CAA, the Congress decided not to join the protests called by the ruling Left. And when we organise protests, Vijayan’s police registered cases against us. His aim is only to appease the BJP,” said Chennithala.

Fri, Mar 15 2024All this is happening , since Kerala is doing a favour to RaGa by giving him a 'victory guaranteed' safe constituency like Wayanad. Hence RaGa and Congress has to accept all this and ensure that Kerala is happy. Its very sad that a party like Congress has to dance to the tunes of Mallu Land!

Fri, Mar 15 2024Why are you worried about CAA? Rahul is educated and matured now so he knows what he is doing and what is important to kick out BJP from power. CAA is just a game to divert peoples mind from main issues like SBI's scam.
