Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Thursday termed 'The Kerala Story 2' as a "hate-mongering film" and said the release of its sequel should be seen with "utmost gravity".
In a post on social media platform X, Vijayan said, having seen through the alleged communal agenda and blatant lies in the first part, "Kerala will once again reject this
attempt to demonise our secular fabric with contempt."
"It is shocking how fabricated narratives aimed at inciting communal discord receive a free pass, while critical expressions of art get gagged.
We must stand united against these attempts to paint our land of harmony as a hub of terror. The truth shall always prevail," he said on X.
