Amit Shah issues war cry as BJP’s Kerala yatra ends

Thiruvananthapuram, Oct 18: The Janaraksha Yatra launched by BJP State president Kummanam Rajasekharan, to focus attention on ‘red and jihadi terror’ in the State, drew to a close here on Tuesday with BJP president Amit Shah issuing a war cry against the CPI(M).

Addressing a public rally to mark the conclusion of the march here, Mr. Shah asked Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan to explain why 14 BJP workers were killed in the State after his government came to power. If the Congress at the national level was imploding under the impact of ‘corruption and family rule’, the CPI(M) in Kerala would cease to exist due to its obsession with politics of violence, the BJP president said.

Mr. Shah said the yatra had rattled Mr. Vijayan. He should take the moral responsibility for killing Sangh Parivar workers in his home district Kannur, Mr. Shah said. The slogan of the yatra seems to be justified since the CPI(M) has elected an accused in a murder case at Kanjikode as its local committee secretary. Along with the yatra in Kerala, the BJP had organised protests in all State capitals, including New Delhi. Mr. Vijayan had said that the yatra was organised to divert public attention from the development initiatives taken up by the State government. The BJP and the Centre are ready for a debate on development. Mr. Vijayan should clarify whether he is willing to take up the debate, Mr. Shah said.

Mr. Rajasekharan said the CPI(M) had lost its moral ground to educate the BJP on the lessons of democracy and the politics of the State would hereafter be known as one before and after the yatra. Union Ministers Ashwini Kumar Choubey and Pon Radhakrishnan; national general secretary Ram Lal, and BDJS president Thushar Vellappally also spoke.

New Delhi, May 29: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday met Prime Minister Narendra Modi and informed him about the views of all chief ministers on the extension of the ongoing nationwide lockdown beyond May 31, officials said.

During the meeting, Shah briefed Modi about the suggestions and the feedback he received from the chief ministers during his telephonic conversations on Thursday, a government official said.

The nationwide curbs were first announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on March 24 for 21 days in a bid to contain the spread of novel coronavirus. It was first extended till May 3 and then again till May 17. The lockdown was further extended till May 31.

The home minister's telephonic conversations with the chief ministers came just three days before the end of the fourth phase of the lockdown.

During his talks with the chief ministers, Shah sought to know the areas of concern of the states and the sectors they want to open up further from June 1, the official said.

Interestingly, till now, it was Modi who had interacted with all chief ministers through video conference before the extension of each phase of the coronavirus-induced lockdown and sought their views.

This was for the first time that the home minister spoke to the chief ministers individually before the end of another phase of the lockdown.

Shah was present in all the conferences of chief ministers along with the prime minister. It is understood that the majority of the chief ministers wanted the lockdown to continue in some form but also favoured opening up of the economic activities and gradual return of the normal life, another official said.

The central government is expected to announce its decision on the lockdown within the next two days.

The number of COVID-19 cases in India has climbed to 1,65,799 on Friday, making it the world's ninth worst-hit country by the coronavirus pandemic.

The Health Ministry said the death toll due to COVID-19 rose to 4,706 in the country. While extending the fourth phase of the lockdown till May 31, the central government had announced the continuation of the prohibition on the opening of schools, colleges and malls but allowed the opening of shops and markets.

It said hotels, restaurants, cinema halls, malls, swimming pools, gyms will remain shut even as all social, political, religious functions, and places of worship will remain closed till May 31.

The government, however, allowed limited operations of the train and domestic flights. The Indian Railways is also running special trains since May 1 for transportation of migrant workers from different parts of the country to their native states.
