AICC general secretary Sachin Pilot has claimed that Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and Prime Minister Narendra Modi follow similar political approaches, alleging that both are “not different, but one”.
Pilot also claimed that the attacks by CPI(M) leaders on Congress leaders are aimed at pleasing PM Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah.
Earlier , Congress leader Rahul Gandhi alleged a “deal” between the CPI(M) and the BJP in Kerala. In reply, Vijayan slammed Gandhi, claiming that he lacks even the political awareness of a local leader.
According to PTI report , Speaking at a press conference in Kochi, Pilot alleged that while CM Vijayan does not criticise the BJP, he is repeatedly targeting opposition leaders, including Gandhi.
“The CPI(M) has nothing to say against the Centre’s petroleum and foreign policies. Even on the LPG shortage issue, the chief minister is hesitant to criticise the Centre. Modi and Vijayan are not different, they are one,” Pilot alleged.
He also said there are similarities even in publicity methods, pointing out that just as the Prime Minister uses only his own image in posters, the CM does the same.
Pilot claimed that people who voted for Vijayan in the last two terms are now disappointed.
