Loka Kerala Sabha is a global scam, V Muraleedharan harshly criticises govt

NEW DELHI: The Loka Kerala Sabha of the state government being held today and tomorrow for the NRKs is a global scam and it has degenerated into a mere political programme, criticised Minister of State for External Affairs V Muraleedharan.

There is no clue as to who are the delegates taking part in it and it has now come to be one which is nothing but a fund raising event for the CPM. The attitude of the Government of Kerala is an approach that challenges the constitutional system and the Constitution. The state government did not hold any consultations with the centre on the conduct of the Lok Sabha. I did not attend the programme as the government passed a resolution against the CAA. I received a letter from the government in connection with the programme. The speaker had also contacted me, he said.

The minister said the congress has two policies in many things. We have only one policy. The states don’t have the right to make a law. If the law is made, then it requires the approval of the President or the Governor. The state government has the right to pass a resolution against CAA. However, my question is how do you justify squandering the money of the people of Kerala by summoning 140 MLAs to pass the resolution?
