KOCHI: The Kerala Catholic Bishops Council (KCBC) annual conference, that ended on Thursday condemning Kevin P Joseph’s death and the police inaction, demanded a CBI investigation into the case. Kevin was a member of the Vijayapuram diocese.
KCBC president Archbishop Soosa Pakiam told reporters the Church is concerned over the rising levels of intolerance and incidents of violence in the state.
KCBC highlighted the need to start imparting constitutional literacy in all schools in Kerala, which will help the future generation to uphold the true democratic principles of the country. Soosa Pakiam demanded the state government end the impasse regarding teaching appointments.
“The constant need to approach the Judiciary to get decisive verdicts in this matter should be avoided,” he said.
