Arif Mohammad Khan was appointed Governor of Kerala in 2019. New Delhi: Kerala Governor Arif Mohammad Khan on Wednesday doubled down on claims of a “nexus” between the ruling CPIM – via the Students’ Federation of India, its student wing – and the Popular Front of India banned by the Union Home Ministry under anti-terror law UAPA.
