CM Pinarayi Vijayan's responds to Guv Arif Muhammed Khan. 'There is a democratic set-up. Earlier, the British used to appoint Residents over the Princely States. That setup will not work in elected State Assemblies.'

True
The whole world wants to malign Malayalis.
The news that Mallus drank Rs.487 cr. worth liquor during Onam is wrong.
They drank only liquor worth Rs.162 cr.
The rest was tax 😂😂

There is no confusion. Kerala says 7 days compulsory institutional quarantine at govt facilities and remaining days at home. Centre says 14 days quarantine, which is at home. So, Kerala has extra precautions. Kerala will release passengers only after PCR tests at end of 7 days.
Recently visited a care home in Kochi. KG George, perhaps the best filmmaker Kerala has seen, was one of the inmates. I thanked him for the movies. Yesterday, I rewatched his film 'Lekhayude Maranam Oru Flashback' based on late actor Shobha and her affair with Balu Mahendra.
While 3 cases are confirmed in
