Alleged inaction concerning Pala bishop’s controversial remarks
Rajya Sabha MP Suresh Gopi has come out in support of the government which is under attack from the Opposition over its alleged inaction concerning the Pala bishop’s controversial ‘narcotic jihad’ remarks.
Talking to mediapersons at Kattappana on Tuesday, the actor-turned BJP politician said Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and other Ministers were aware of the situation and should be permitted to do what they have to. The government was doing what it could do and he would react if the intervention of the government was against the interests of the nation. It was not desirable to criticise the government on each and every issue, Mr. Gopi said.
He was responding to a query by reporters as to whether time for intervention by the government in the controversy had elapsed.
