MALAPPURAM: Nilambur MLA P V Anwar lashed out against the government and Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan again. While addressing the media, Anwar asked why he was portrayed as a robber and why cheated him. Anwar added that he is not afraid of the consequences of his open statements. He was talking to the media after Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan's press meet.

'I have not left the LDF willingly. I’m still with the LDF, will stay here until told to step aside. If goes this way, there will be candidates who will not get the money placed in the 2026 elections. I have things to say not only to the media but also to the people. If I have a role in the gold smuggling, let an investigation be conducted', said Anwar. My only hope is the court, said Anwar.
