The Chief Minister and Ministers interacted with the selected officials from all sectors in the morning Sadas of each day. Valuable suggestions were received for the progress of future Kerala. Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan's press conference followed after that. On the same day, the address of the Chief Minister and Ministers with a huge crowd in four constituencies as witnesses. Counters to receive complaints from people in parallel. Associations of officials to evaluate them. This was the mode of travel.

It's a distinct initiative to share with the people the problems and welfare activities faced by the government and the state. The Chief Minister and the government are confident that this initiative will be successful. The government's priority will now be to resolve the complaints received as soon as possible.'

Protests heated up

The political dimension of the Navakerala Sadas is that with three months left for the parliamentary elections, it has paved the way not only for the LDF but also for the UDF and the BJP to shake off their laziness and get ready for battle. The Congress leaders, who confined their fighting spirit in statements and speeches, were corrected by the members. The protest by Youth Congress and KSU activists against the Navakerala bus also lacked an organized form.

Despite the DYFI activists confronting the black flag protesters, there was no significant response from the Congress leaders at first. It was also alleged that the leaders are not taking Kuttavicharana Sadas, which was started by the UDF as an alternative to Navakerala, seriously. Finally, when the anger of the activists came to a boil, they were forced to give instructions for a counterattack. This is what was witnessed from Kollam. Vigilance was also evident in the ranks of the BJP. The efforts of the fronts will be to maintain this awareness until the elections.
