‘Mass political campaign to defame Kerala’: Minister KN Balagopal

The state of Kerala and the CPIM government have been under fire for some time with various accusations floating around. 

While the government has been blamed for the financial situation of the state and has been questioned for not creating enough jobs, there is also a narrative against Kerala that it is in the grasp of Muslim terrorists and radicals. And the most recent push to this narrative seems to have come through The Kerala Story, aided by the BJP and the right wing. 

Kerala Finance Minister KN Balagopal speaks to Dhanya Rajendran about these allegations.
