Stand united against forces trying to divide India: Pinarayi Vijayan

Vijayan further said that in the decades since independence, India has upheld democracy, except during a short time, and this was the country’s biggest achievement, as it has seen some of its neighbouring countries turning into military or puppet regimes.

Meanwhile, the CM, Leader of Opposition in the Assembly V D Satheesan and the cabinet ministers did not attend Governor’s customary ‘At Home’ reception at the Raj Bhavan, official sources said on Friday.
