KOZHIKODE: Opposition Leader VD Satheesan said that the Chief Minister has become a coward who hides among a thousand policemen if two children show a black flag on the road. VD Satheesan criticized Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and MV Govindan during his speech after inaugurating the day and night strike of the Congress for the protection of Comtrust.

"CPM Secretary MV Govindan called the children, who protested, a suicide squad. We are proud of those children. The party secretary is leading the journey to defend Swapna and Akash Thillenkeri. The Chief Minister, who does not allow people to wear black masks and clothes, is becoming a laughing stock in front of the people. The strike will be strengthened. Pinarayi Vijayan is the only Chief Minister of Kerala who was lucky enough to see the black flag from Thiruvananthapuram to Kasaragod," Satheesan said.

"The CPM is trembling before a third-class criminal named Akash Thillenkeri. The leaders have given instructions to the ranks not to disturb Akash. The CPM is worried that if Akash becomes upset, he will call out the names of its leaders who gave orders for the murders. CPM has become a party that fears Swapna and Akash Thillenkeri. CPM leaders and supporters are behind all the anti-social activities taking place in the state such as drug trafficking, quotation attacks, gold smuggling, murders and rape. CPM has used Swapna Suresh to make money and criminals like Akash Thillenkeri to get rid of political opponents," Satheesan added.
