The Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) on Thursday perceived a plot to provoke Congress workers into violence against CPI(M) cadres by using the heft of the Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan's Office (CMO) to employ the police and criminals to target Opposition offices and activists.
KPCC president K. Sudhakaran and Leader of the Opposition V.D. Satheesan said the CMO was desperate to create a CPI(M) martyr to extricate the government from its current predicament.
The government was reeling from days of street protests demanding Mr. Vijayan’s resignation in the wake of the “damning disclosures” by the diplomat channel gold smugglng case accused Swapna Suresh.
