BJP workers protests outside Kerala secretariat against murder of party worker in Kannur

The BJP on Thursday protested outside Kerala secretariat in Thiruvananthapuram against the murder of a party worker in Kannur. BJP has called for a bandh in Kerala to protest against the murder of its activist allegedly by CPI-M members in Pinarayi village in Kannur district. The BJP has demanded a CBI probe into the murder.

The BJP ha also accused Kera’s Left Democratic Front government and Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan of unleashing "political terrorism" in Kerala.

BJP Chief Amit Shah on Wednesday condemned the murder of Prenith and alleged "political vendetta" was the reason behind attacks on party workers in Kerala.

"Murder of Ramith in Pinarayi is disturbing. Attacks on BJP karyakartas (workers) in chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan's home constituency is a matter of grave concern and smacks of political vendetta," Shah said on Twitter.
