BJP an obstacle to Kerala’s progress: CM Pinarayi Vijayan

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Days after a letter by state BJP chief PS Sreedharan Pillai written to the Centre asking it to stall a national highway project became public, Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Tuesday slammed the activities of the right-wing forces for hindering the state’s development.

“His letter came at a time when the Left government had revived the process of land acquisition in the national highway development project cutting across our state,” Vijayan said after chairing a cabinet meeting here.
