Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan flays IndiGo’s ban on CPI(M) leader Jayarajan

Kerala chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan berated IndiGo airline’s decision to impose a ban on senior CPI(M) leader E P Jayarajan and accused the airline of failing to ensure passengers’ protection.

Meanwhile, former MLA and Congress leader K S Sabarinadhan was arrested on Tuesday on charges of hatching a conspiracy to endanger the life of the chief minister inside an aircraft. Congress leaders alleged that Sabarinadhan’s arrest was one more example of Pinarayi government’s vindictive action and misuse of the police.

On a June 13 IndiGo flight from Kannur to Thiruvananthapuram, two Youth Congress workers staged a protest against the chief Minister.
