CPI-M’s Kerala state secretary M.V. Govindan on Friday clarified that the February 8 event at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar, led by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and his entire cabinet besides law makers is not a meeting, but a protest against the Centre’s “wrong attitude” towards the state.
Vijayan and his team from Kerala will march from the Kerala House to Jantar Mantar and stage a sit in protest.
Govindan was peeved after the media here reported that the protest that was earlier announced has been changed to a meeting. What more hurt the CPI-M the most was when the Congress-led opposition took pot shots against Vijayan and his cabinet that they changed from protests to meeting because they are scared of Prime Minister Modi.
