THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Close on the heels of National Highway Authority of India’s (NHAI) decision to put on hold land acquisition for NH development in Kerala, Finance minister Thomas Isaac has come out against BJP state president P S Sreedharan Pillai for attempting to sabotage NH development in the state. Isaac, who released a letter from Pillai to Union minister Nitin Gadkari seeking to keep land acquisition on abeyance, said Pillai should be declared as state’s common enemy.
In a Facebook post on Monday, Isaac alleged Pillai has been using the position of BJP’s state presidentship to sabotage Kerala’s development. “This should not be treated as a mere issue of political differences. He’s trying to sabotage Kerala’s future development. NHAI is trying to ensure that NH development will not become a reality during this government’s tenure. The BJP state president has become a tool for this purpose. Here’s one more evidence how they are trying to destroy the state.
