HC's remark on Life Mission scam: K Surendran demands CM's resignation

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Soon after the Kerala High Court directed the CBI to go ahead with the probe in Life Mission scam, BJP state president came down heavily at the state government. Terming the high court's direction a heavy blow to the government, Surendran said that chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan should immediately resign from office for attempting to sabotage CBI probe.

"The high court has urged the state government to cooperate with the CBI probe as it became aware of the corruption involved in the Life Mission project. The government must apologise for spending money from the treasury for sabotaging CBI probe," Surendran said.
