After Congress, the Centre took a turn today at inspecting the facilities for pilgrims at Kerala's Sabarimala hill shrine. The conclusion was similar. Union Minister KJ Alphons accused the Left-led state government of running a "dictatorship" and ignoring his recommendations made after a couple of earlier visits. "A situation worse than emergency is happening here, the devotees are not allowed to go up. Section 144 is imposed for no reason," added the minister, who arrived at the shrine the morning after midnight violence when the police cracked down on protesters.
