DISMISSING allegations over attempts to curtail media freedom, the state government on Wednesday clarified that no such move has been made.

- EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE @T'Puram

In a statement issued on Wednesday, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan termed the allegations baseless.

The statement from the CMO said the government has ordered an inquiry into how a copy of a highly confidential letter regarding the World Bank's fund allocation for the 'Kera' project was leaked to the media.

The CMO said such leaks could undermine the government's credibility before a financial institution, and understanding the circumstances was necessary for smooth administration.
