#Comedy of errors.
Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan seems to be on a world tour adventure with his family, raising eyebrows and triggering criticism from opposition parties.
While his previous visit to the U.S, Cuba, and the UAE in June 2023 stirred controversy, his current trip to Indonesia, LuAE, Singapore and other undisclosed destinations is shrouded in mystery. What's notable is his exclusion of China and North Korea, perhaps a strategic move to avoid further political backlash.
The composition of his entourage, including his wife, daughter, daughter's minister husband, and grandson, raises questions about the nature of this trip. With its purportedly "private" nature, Vijayan may not claim no expenses incurred from the state exchequer, leaving many to wonder who will lead Kerala in his absence.
The absence of a clear succession plan amidst uncertainty about his return only adds to the political circus, making Kerala's governance seem like a scene from a comedy of errors rather than a model of effective leadership.
