The governor accused the police of protecting the SFI activists. “I will not leave from here. The police are giving them protection.” “Police officials were standing here, protecting them. Who will uphold laws if the police are breaking them?” previously, the Governor had stepped out of his car in December last year when faced with a similar kind of protest in Thiruvananthapuram. 

Today’s development comes amid unrest between Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan’s government and the governor.
