Thiruvananthapuram: Governor Arif Muhammad Khan said that Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan went abroad without informing him. Thanks for the media coverage of the trip. The Chief Minister has not informed the Raj Bhavan about his previous foreign trips also. The state government is taking the position of keeping the Raj Bhavan in the dark.
He told reporters in Kochi that he had sent a letter to the President about this. Meanwhile, he is not available to respond to the allegations against Bengal Governor CV Ananda Bose. Arif Mohammad Khan said that Ananda Bose himself has responded to the incident. The Chief Minister visited Indonesia, Singapore and UAE last week. There were no announcements about the 12-day event.
The opposition had disputed this. The main criticism raised by the Congress and the BJP was that the Chief Minister should say who is the sponsor of the yatra. But the Left also came forward in defense of the Chief Minister. On May 6, the Chief Minister went abroad with his relatives. The government itself issues a notification when the Chief Minister goes abroad for a normal official trip. But the party says this is an unofficial trip.
