NEW DELHI: It has been alleged that the central government has asked scientists to write articles criticizing the state while Kerala is in dire straits after the Wayanad landslide disaster. In a report published by News Minute, it is said that the Press Information Bureau has asked scientists to write articles criticizing Kerala.
According to the report, the Press Information Bureau has contacted three out of seven articles that said the Kerala government’s wrong policies were responsible for the riots in Wayanad. It has been proposed to write this article by submitting a word document containing links to previous news about the quarry problem in Kerala.
It has been suggested to include in the article that the state government has not stopped the activities and mining of quarries and this has led to the Wayanad disaster. It also mentions several points that the authors should emphasize in the article, such as the approval of quarries without environmental impact assessments, the number of quarries that are not permitted, and the link between landslides and quarries .
Meanwhile, when the Wayanad tragedy was discussed in Parliament, Home Minister Amit Shah took a stand against Kerala. Amit Shah had said in the Lok Sabha that he had warned Kerala about the landslide. The Union Forest and Environment Minister blamed Kerala for the landslide disaster.
