Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday commended his Kerala counterpart Pinarayi Vijayan for “successfully confronting all those forces” trying to divide people in the name of caste and religion.

Inaugurating a cultural festival jointly organised by the two States here, Mr. Kejriwal said the situation demanded unity among parties to fight the forces polarising the society. He did not name any individual or party. But the Kerala CM and the BJP have been accusing each other of unleashing political violence against the workers of the other party in the southern State.

“I salute the Kerala CM for confronting all those forces that are trying to divide people,” Mr. Kejriwal said.
