THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan is proving every day that his name indicates failure rather than victory, says deputy to opposition leader M K Muneer MLA.

Chief minister protected his former principal secretary, Sivasankar under his wings, whenever an issue was raised against him.

However, it was Sivasankar who ruled for four-and-a-half years. And now, for what reason has the chief minister taken over the charge of administration?. The ruling front is suffering from ‘BP phobia’—They fear that they will lose mandate. Muneer also alleged that at panchayat level people are running from pillar to post as they are not getting houses allotted to them.

The Muslim League MLA also said that he hadn’t seen Quran distribution in rules of business and governor hadn’t deputed ministers to distribute Quran. Burglary and theft are going on under the garb of Covid-19 preparedness. Government is buying PPE kits without following due tender procedures and at the same time, they have lowered the salary of health professionals. The finance minister is just a namesake post now. The opposition is deeply anguished over the perilous condition of the finance minister.

Muneer further said that “in the next election you (LDF) should contest as the members of Sivasankar’s cabinet. The ruling front can insult opposition using their cyber team but the society knows the importance of opposition”.
