Kerala BJP Criticizes CM Vijayan's Remarks on Iran Amid West Asia Conflict

Kerala BJP president Rajeev Chandrasekhar criticised Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan for remarks perceived as supportive of Iran amid the West Asia conflict, accusing him of ignoring attacks on Gulf Cooperation Council countries where many Malayalis live. Chandrasekhar contrasted Vijayan's stance with the central government's diplomatic approach, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, emphasizing peaceful resolution. He also highlighted India's permission for an Iranian ship to dock in Kochi and urged Vijayan to focus on Kerala's local issues instead of international matters.
