THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Inspired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan spoke to his people across the state through the radio the day his office completed 100 days of governance. The address that went on for over 10 minutes, was aired by all private FM channels and the All India Radio. "The unity of people is essential for the overall development of the state. Certain forces are trying to destroy this unity. But this government is committed to safeguarding the human values and people's goodness, irrespective of religious and communal divide."
In the speech Vijayan claimed that the people of the state gave their utmost support in the first 100 days of his governance. He said the prime focus of the CPM-led LDF government would be comprehensive development. "A concrete step for waste management is the need of the hour and the government is committed to bring out a successful model in Kerala," Vijayan said. The CM also warned severe action against the illegal practices like use of drugs and narcotics, making it clear that there won't be any compromise while dealing with such cases.
"We need to be always cautious about our children. We must keep our eyes open to the small changes in their behaviour. In case of need, the services of teachers and counsellors should be taken. If we strive together, we can root out the huge danger of drug menace completely from the society."
