Addressing media persons here on Friday, Mr Rai said that Sangh Parivar should not forget the fact that Vijayan is a democratically elected chief minister of a state. “Politically we may be from two different parties. But, we cannot bar a neighboring state’s CM’s entry to the city. As a district in-charge minister, I condemn the statements of Sangh Parivar and BJP, who called for bundh against Kerala CM's visit, " he said.

“I have directed the district administration and the police to take all necessary precautions to ensure smooth conduct of the rally of the CPI(M) and also to take stringent action against those try to breach peace in Mangaluru and other parts of the coastal district,” he said.

Meanwhile, veteran Congress leader B Janardhana Poojary too pitched in to express his moral support to the rally to be addressed by Kerala CM. Poojary said the Sangh Parivar and BJP have been challenging the Supreme Court's directives by giving bandh call. "Dishonouring Supreme Court's directive is equal to dishonouring of the nation," Poojary added.
