Sangh Parivar march

 

Workers of the Bharatiya Janata Party, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, Hindu Aikya Vedi, and the ABVP staged a march to the office of the Superintendent of Police in Kannur on Wednesday afternoon demanding the arrest of all accused involved in the murder of the 23-year-old activist.

 

Over 500 Sangh Parivar activists participated in the march, which was barricaded near the Police Club by a large contingent of police personnel led by Deputy Superintendent of Police P. Sukumaran.

 

Hindu Aikya Vedi State general secretary Kummanam Rajashekharan inaugurated the march. He said the government was trying to implement religion-based criminal laws under pressure from organised religions.

 

RSS leader Valsan Thillankery and BJP district president K. Ranjith also addressed the marchers.

 

The marchers demanded a ban on the PFI and the CFI and a probe into the conspiracy behind the killing of the ABVP activist.
