K Muraleedharan retracts statement, says ‘Pinarayi is not like K Karunakaran’

KOZHIKODE: K Muraleedharan MP retracted the statement regarding the style of functioning of Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and his father the late K Karunakaran. The MP said yesterday that like his father K Karunakaran, Pinarayi Vijayan too has the ability to bring together caste and religious sections.

Muraleedharan said today Pinarayi is not like Karunakaran. The senior leader helped the religious leaders and solved the issue but Pinarayi is cheating. Muraleedharan said this while inaugurating the UDF dharna against central and state governments.

Muraleedharan harshly criticised the left parties. Muraleedharan said that when Big brother smuggles gold, the small one smuggles teak. The central and state governments are competing to hurt the people. Muraleedharan accused the government for announcing benefits during election time and withdrawing everything after the elections.
