THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The announcement of Sangh Parivar to send director Adoor Gopalakirshnan to the moon is like insulting the state, said CPM state secretary Kodiyeri Balakrishnan.

Kodiyeri said the Sangh Parivar's attempt to lure anyone into any form of violence will not be fruitful in Kerala. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has the responsibility to respond on the statement of the RSS. Neither the leaders of the BJP nor the RSS have come against the deportation order against Adoor. If resisting the violent politics of the Sangh Parivar, there was a threat of facing the same fate as that of Gauri Lankesh. Kodiyeri said the Keralites will unite for Adoor Gopalakrishnan.
