PM Narendra Modi on Friday criticised the Kerala government for their action against Ayyappa devotees during Sabarimala protests. "The devotees of Swami Ayyappa...should've been welcomed with flowers [but were] welcomed with lathis. They aren’t criminals," he said. Kerala had witnessed protests after it followed Supreme Court's verdict to allow menstruating women to enter the Sabarimala shrine.
