Even God is not safe in Kerala, alleges Nirmala Sitharaman

Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Saturday raised the Sabarimala gold loss issue during an NDA poll campaign event at Perumbavoor and said even ‘God is not safe’ in Kerala. While addressing party workers during a roadshow, she said the southern State may be known as ‘God’s Own Country’. “But God is not safe in Kerala. Even Lord Ayyappa’s gold was taken away. So, my humble request is that...we don’t want UDF and LDF anymore in the State,” Sitharaman said. Launching a scathing attack on the CPI(M)-led ruling LDF and the Congress-led UDF, she accused the traditional fronts of mismanaging Kerala’s economy through alternate stints in power.
