THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: KPCC president K Sudhakaran said that Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan betrayed secular Kerala by sacrificing a Principal Secretary to please the governor, who is turning the Raj Bhavan into an RSS office. Sudhakaran said that Pinarayi Vijayan was the best friend of the governor who is acting as an agent of Modi and Amit Shah.

"The order appointing the RSS leader to the personal staff was signed by the Chief Minister. An official will never write a letter to the governor like this. The Chief Minister has spat on his own face by taking action against the officer. The governor's face was saved but the chief minister's face was utterly disfigured," Sudhakaran said.

"The Left government is moving forward with the full support of the BJP. The CPM-BJP alliance can be seen on all issues, including the appointment of the VC and the Lokayukta Ordinance," he added.

Lashing out at governor Arif Mohammad Khan, Sudhakaran said that Khan was focusing on spreading the ideas and stance of the RSS. "The governor is on focusing on spreading RSS stances and ideas. That is why RSS members are being appointed as his office staff and the Chief Minister is supporting it," Sudhakaran said.
