CPM’s V N Vasavan accuses Kerala CM of six policy self-goals

Kottayam: While Cristiano Ronaldo scripted history by scoring in six Fifa World Cups, chief minister V D Satheesan has earned notoriety by scoring six self-goals within a month, CPM state secretariat member V N Vasavan said on Saturday.Satheesan’s first self-goal, Vasavan said, was singing portions of ‘Vande Mataram’ that refer to a religion-based nation, in violation of a Congress Working Committee decision. This was followed by the use of AI to prepare the white paper on the state’s financial situation.The CM then cheated Kerala by deciding to implement the PM SHRI scheme, which imposes Centre’s National Education Policy. His fourth self-goal was appointing K B Pradeep, lawyer of Sabarimala gold heist case accused Pankaj Bhandari, as special govt pleader. He then signed liquor major Bacardi’s file with unusual speed and granted tax concessions to liquor. Finally, when the sentiment of Kuttanad on the Champakulam boat race was placed before him, the CM again showed his dual face.

“The chief minister has one stance while standing and another while sitting,” Vasavan said.
