Kerala High Court today on 13th of December heard a plea of a petitioner who objected to the Prime Minister’s photo on the covid vaccine certificates.
The petitioner worked in the Jawaharlal Nehru University and therefore Justice PVKunhikrishnan asked him that ,What is wrong with PM Modi photo on vaccine certificate if University can have name of Jawaharlal Nehru. PV Kunhikrishnan said “What is the problem if Prime Minister Modi’s name is there on the vaccine certificate? You work at an Institute named after Jawaharlal Nehru, he is also a Prime Minister. Why not ask the university to remove that name also”, the judge remarked orally.
The petitioner argued that no other country holds the name and photo of its Prime Minister on the covid vaccine certificates upon which Justice PV Kunhikrishnan answered “They are not proud of their PM, we are proud of ours. He became PM because of the mandate of the people. We have different political opinions but he is still our prime minister,”.
