The CPI(M) in Kerala on 10 May, likened Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan’s foreign trip to God’s rest after creating the universe in six days. Responding to controversies over his trip, party leader AK Balan said Pinarayi did not go to space; he simply took a break in Indonesia, 60 km away from Indira Point in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
