The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) State president, Rajiv Chandrasekhar, has cautioned Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin from attending the “Global Ayyappa Sangamam” at Pampa in Sabarimala on September 10, without apologising to Hindus.
In a social media post on X on Sunday (August 24, 2025), Mr Chandrasekhar accused both Chief Ministers of “insulting” the Hindu faith. He said the event, which he termed as “opportunistic politics”, was tantamount to provocation and warned the leaders against underestimating the strength and will of “BJP karya karthas and Hindus” in Kerala and Tamil Nadu, to resist their presence at Sabarimala.
