Embracing the true essence of Onam, the state government was actively working to narrow the divide between the rich and the poor, Vijayan said during his inaugural address at the Nishagandhi open-air auditorium here.
The government aims to create a better tomorrow by treating everyone equally, just like the spirit of the Onam festival, Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan said on Sunday after inaugurating the statewide celebrations of the upcoming harvest festival here.
Embracing the true essence of Onam, the state government was actively working to narrow the divide between the rich and the poor, Vijayan said during his inaugural address at the Nishagandhi open-air auditorium here.
“The government aims to create a better tomorrow by treating everyone equally. The government strives to realise the true essence of the Onam festival,” Vijayan said during an event in which popular actor Fahadh Faasil and dancer Mallika Sarabhai also took part.
In an apparent reference to the opposition allegations over the economic condition of the state, Vijayan said a few days ago some people raised concerns whether the state will be able to celebrate Onam festival.
