I expect Pinarayi Vijayan, new cabinet to build prosperous Kerala: V S Achuthanandan

Said in a Facebook post that Vijayan's statement on priorities on the govt was a good start

CPI(M) veteran V S Achuthanandan today said that he hoped Chief Minister-designate Pinarayi Vijayan and his cabinet colleagues can build a prosperous Kerala with people's support.

The 92-year old Achuthanandan in his Facebook post said that the remark of Vijayan on the priorities of the government was a good start.

He started the posting with "Abivadayagal. It is a good start. I welcome the statement of Vijayan on the priorities of the government. I see it as a good start", he said.

"I expect that the Chief Minister designate Vijayan and his cabinet colleagues can build a prosperous Kerala with people's support," he said.

Referring to the recent statement of BJP leaders on the law and order situation in the state, Achuthanandan said the new government has to be watchful.

"Now itself some Central ministers have come out with threatening voices. They will do anything to destabilise the progressive government and so we have to be watchful", he said.
