Former Union Minister Rajeev Chandrasekhar has launched a scathing attack on the political landscape of Kerala, contrasting the 'politics of performance' seen under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's governance with what he labels as 'Bharna Nadagam' (the drama of governance) by the Congress party and the CPM. While celebrating India's developmental strides over the last 12 years under PM Modi, Chandrasekhar argued that Kerala's public finances have suffered drastically under continuous state misrule.
