Trouble seems to be mounting for Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan-led Kerala government after the Opposition leader Ramesh Chennithala on Saturday came out with a picture of a meeting between the state’s Fisheries Minister J Mercykutty and a US-based firm on a proposed project of handing over the deep-sea fishing in the state to the latter.

However, Mercykutty denied the allegation of any such meeting and said that Chennithala has lost his bearings as he came out with this project on Friday.
