Journalists were denied access to a seminar chaired by Chief Minister Binarayi Vijayan.
The seminar was held at the EMS Academy under the theme ‘Let’s Create a New Kerala’ by the CBI-M Research Center.
The incident comes amid Congress and BJP-led protests across the state demanding the resignation of the chief minister following allegations that Binarayi Vijayan and his family were linked to Swapna Suresh, the prime accused in the gold and currency smuggling case.
Generally, the media will be allowed to attend all party functions attended by Chief Minister Binarayi Vijayan. But journalists were turned away at a seminar today.
It is noteworthy that protests have been going on across the state since Saturday against Chief Minister Binarayi Vijayan.
