Hindustan Times

June 22, 2025

The Bharat Mata portrait row involving Kerala governor Rajendra Vishawanath Arlekar triggered a series of street protests on Saturday with the ruling CPI (M)'s official mouthpiece publishing a hard-hitting editorial against the Raj Bhavan.

Kerala has been witnessing a tussle between Arlekar and the LDF government over the display of Bharat Mata portrait during events at the Raj Bhavan.

In a strongly worded editorial, Deshabhimani, the official organ of the Marxist party in the state, asserted that Raj Bhavan is not a "shakha" (unit) of the RSS.

As per the latest photos released by Raj Bhavan, the governor paid floral tributes to the portrait during the Yoga Day celebrations on Saturday.
