Prime Minister Narendra Modi Sunday again raked up the Sabarimala temple issue and said the communist government in the state has been disrespecting all aspects of Kerala's culture.

He also lambasted both the congress and Communists for having no regard for women's empowerment, best exemplified by their opposition to the NDA government's efforts to end triple talaq.

"Let me tell you, neither Congress nor the communists have any concern for women's empowerment.If they did,they would not have opposed the NDA government's effort to end triple talaq.

India has had many women Chief Ministers, but is there any communist chief minister?," he asked.

On the Sabarimala issue, Modi alleged that the cultural ethos of the state was under attack from the Communist government.

"Unfortunately today, the cultural ethos of Kerala is under attack.
