Amidst the massive surge in Covid-19 cases, actress Parvathy Thiruvothu slammed the Kerala government’s decision to allow 500 invitees for its swearing-in ceremony. In a series of tweets, the actress called the government’s move as shocking and unacceptable. She even requested the government to cancel the public gathering.

Kerala’s CPI(M)-led Left Democratic Front (LDF) government is planning to host a swearing-in ceremony in the presence of 500 people on May 20.

In a series of tweets, Parvathy urged the Kerala government to take the current situation into consideration and go for a virtual ceremony instead. The Uyare actress wrote, “There is no doubt that the state government has done incredible work and continues to do so to aid the frontline workers & help battle this pandemic is a very responsible way. Which is why it is shocking and unacceptable. that a crowd of 500 is deemed “not that much” by the @CMOKerala for the swearing-in ceremony on 20th.”

She further tweeted, “Given that the cases are still on the rise and we are nowhere near a finish line, it is an extremely wrong move especially when there is an opportunity to set. an example by holding a virtual ceremony instead! I request the @CMOKerala to please consider this request and cancel such a public gathering. A virtual swearing-in ceremony, please! (sic).”

The swearing-in ceremony is going to take place at the Central Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram.

The second wave of Coronavirus has severely affected the entire nation. In fact, experts have even warned about the third wave. So it’s only logical that such a large public gathering is avoided at any cost.
