Thiruvananthapuram, November 22: Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan Thursday described as "undemocratic and anti-people" the action of the Jammu and Kashmir Governor Satya Pal Malik in dissolving the state assembly. The governor had a constitutional obligation to allow an opportunity for the PDP to prove its claims of majority, Vijayan said in a Facebook Post. However, it was not examined, he said. It is clear that the decision to dissolve the legislature, which had two more years left in its tenure, was taken when it became evident that a non-BJP government was going to be formed, Vijayan said.

This whole affair can be only be viewed as a "political game orchestrated by the central government using governors as pawns," he alleged. Sabarimala Temple Women's Entry: Pinarayi Vijayan Blames RSS For Attacks on Devotees.

"The Jammur & Kashmir policy of the central government is quite malevolent. The centre is using the problems of Kashmir as a means for communal polarisation. These measures will only help alienate the people there," Vijayan said.
