Thrissur pooram was disrupted and pushed into chaos this time. Kerala chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan has put the blame for disrupting Thrissur Pooram on Kerala Police. But what about the government's responsibilities? Has Pinarayi failed to control the home department which is under him? Do police officers act without government's permission?
The fact is, the Left has a tradition of intervening in temple traditions and creating chaos. They tried it in Sabarimala in 2018. They think temples are institutions that bring Hindus together and it should not be allowed to thrive. In other words, temples are places promoting Hindu identity and it shouldn't be encouraged. They fear that emergence of Hindu identity and unity are antithetical to left ideology and so they shouldn't be allowed to thrive.
