Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan goes the smart way, launches FB page to connect with people

Polit Bureau member and Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan is going the 'smart' way to connect with the public and update them about various activities of his new government with the launch of his official Facebook page.

He has launched his official Facebook page-Chief Minister's Office, Kerala- which will be used as a platform to inform people about government's significant decisions and new projects and also to seek their suggestions and opinions. Though the page was created weeks ago, the CM became active on it on Friday.

In his initial FB post, Vijayan said the page is meant to interact with people on different issues handled by the ministry. "It is also a space for you (public) to express your opinion, make criticisms and share suggestions regarding the government's activities," he said.

He also elaborated various measures taken by his ministry within the short span of over one month of coming to power. An instant hit among social media users, the CM's official FB page has received 99,703 likes so far.
