Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Thursday rejected the corruption charges levelled by the Congress-led UDF over various issues, including the government’s permission for a private company to establish a brewery plant in Palakkad and the purchase of PPE kits during the time of Covid-19 pandemic.
Speaking during the discussion on the motion of thanks to the Governor’s address in the Assembly, the CM denied the allegations of severe corruption and lapses in administration levelled by the UDF.
Rejecting the opposition’s corruption allegations regarding the brewery plant, Vijayan stated there was no basis for any suspicion.
“The project will bring an investment of Rs 600 crore to the state, which will create direct employment opportunities for 650 people and indirect employment for around 2,000 people,” he said.
