Alappuzha (Kerala), Sep 16 (PTI) Union Minister Suresh Gopi on Monday urged the media to question Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan over the delay in central aid for the landslide-hit Wayanad.

When reporters sought his reaction on the matter, a visibly irritated Gopi smiled and said the CM was aware how the system works and so ask him (CM).

“You ask your Chief Minister… what is the system? I don’t like this at all…You ask your CM… let him tell how it (central aid) comes,” the union minister said.

Though the scribes repeatedly asked the question, the actor-turned-politician was reluctant to comment.

Major landslides hit the Mundakkai and Chooralmala regions of Wayanad on July 30, almost decimating both areas and leaving over 200 people dead.
