"It is not up to the governor to tell the state opposition leader how to behave and whom to emulate," he said.
Muraleedharan also slammed Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and asked him not to support the governor, who has links with RSS.
"The UDF is not opposed to giving pensions to personal staff. The governor could do nothing in this matter," he added.
If there is a need for an amendment on the issue, it should be tabled in Assembly. The chief minister and the government should show some courage to reject the unnecessary suggestions from governor, he said.
