KOCHI: BJP State general secretary M T Ramesh has alleged that the chief minister has been trying to mislead people in the issue regarding women’s entry in Sabarimala.

“Now, Pinarayi Vijayan is getting scared about the voice of protests rising from the streets of Kerala. The government is seeing the protest marches reverberating with the chanting of Saranams as the clarion call for a riot.

Nowhere in the protests, there was any slogan against the government. Now, the chief minister will have to explain why the government deterred the Devaswom board from filing a review petition against the Supreme Court order that allows women of any age to enter Sabarimala Sannidhanam,” Ramesh said.
