Kerala is set to hold a major one-day protest in Thiruvananthapuram on January 12th against the central government's alleged financial restrictions. Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan announced the Satyagraha, citing reduced borrowing limits, withheld IGST recovery, and pending compensation as reasons for the state's financial strain. The demonstration will involve ministers, MLAs, and MPs, marking a new phase of resistance against what the state terms 'financial strangulation' by the Centre.
