Covid-19 fight
,
chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan
said that the government intends to go forward by taking the opposition into confidence.
Talking in 'Naam Munnottu', the weekly debate programme of the chief minister, he said that the government was expecting the opposition to cooperate for all that is done for the betterment of the state. "The government has no hesitation in discussing all such matters with the opposition as the opposition is part of the system and all the political parties are standing for the development of the state," he said.
