The Thrissur Pooram festival in Kerala has become the center of a political controversy following a 4-hour delay in the traditional fireworks display and police interference. The BJP has accused the Kerala government, led by CM Pinarayi Vijayan, of disrespecting the festival by imposing curbs on the celebrations, leading to the transfer of the Thrissur Police Commissioner and the Assistant Commissioner of Police as the CPM went into damage control mode. The controversy escalated with a new video showing police attempting to stop decorations related to Sri Ram, which further fueled the political tensions. Additionally, Thiruvambady devaswom stopped the ceremonies, and for the first time in the festival's history, the fireworks were held in broad daylight.
