The Prime Minister had called on the JD(S) chief to discuss the situation in the country. This is not the first time that Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi has expressed appreciation and showed support to leaders from other states. On April 4, Pinarayi pledged support to the neighbouring state of Tamil Nadu in a rare display of camaraderie with TN Chief Minister Edappadi K Palaniswami.  It started with Pinarayi busting a fake news that Kerala had sealed its borders with Tamil Nadu as the latter saw a surge in COVID-19 cases.  “Such a thought has never crossed our mind. We see our brothers who live next to us as siblings,” he told media persons on Friday. The video was shared by the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister who vowed to stand by Kerala during good and bad times. Edappadi’s message was shared by Pinarayi who tweeted that both states were bonded in love, brotherhood, history, language, and culture. He also added that those who propagated false messages failed to understand the depth of this relationship. He also added that together, both states could overcome the challenges.
