The incident took place on when the victim was returning home. Siddiq was immediately rushed to a nearby hospital. He suffered serious stab wounds and later succumbed to death in the hospital. While speaking to a leading news channel, CPI (M) MLA Samseer alleged that the RSS was behind the attack.

A strong contingent of police was deployed in the region in the wake of the killing, said police.

This is not the first such case of RSS-CPI (M) rivalry being witnessed with the parties accusing each other of the incidents. Not long before, a local CPI (M) leader was stabbed to death in New Mahe in Kunnur in June 2018. Over the years, the RSS-saffron rivalry has taken lives of more than 200 workers belonging to both camps.

Last November, V Anandan, a worker of Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) who was out on bail for murdering a CPI (M) worker, was murdered in Nenmini.

Mumbai, Jun 14: Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput committed suicide on Sunday, leaving all his fans and the industry in shock. While the reason behind him taking up the extreme step is still not clear, a look into Sushant’s social media feed suggests that things were not well for him for quite some time.

Sushant had been inactive on Twitter since months. His last tweet was on December 27, 2019. Since then, he did not even reply to any one on Twitter. Same is the case with his Facebook account as the last post on his timeline was on the same date. Interestingly, Sushant's Twitter cover picture is the popular painting - 'Starry Night', by Van Gogh, who had also reportedly committed suicide in 1890.

On Instagram, the young actor had last posted on June 3. It was a collage picture of him and his mother along with a cryptic caption that read, “Blurred past evaporating from teardrops Unending dreams carving an arc of smile And a fleeting life, negotiating between the two...#माँ”.

Was Sushant’s inactivity on Twitter, Facebook and his last cryptic post on Instagram a signal that the actor was having a tough time? Well, may be it will remain a mystery forever.

Bengaluru, Jan 12: Janata Dal (Secular) chief and former prime minister H D Deve Gowda on Sunday refuted reports of him contesting in the Rajya Sabha elections and added that he is more concerned about strengthening his party in Karnataka.

"I am not interested in going to Rajya Sabha. My concern is to build and strengthen the party in the region to the best of my ability. I had declared earlier that I will not contest elections anymore," Deve Gowda told ANI here.

"My party MP D Kupendra Reddy is there in the Rajya Sabha as of now and further decisions will be taken by the party. In March 2019, towards the end of the 16th Lok Sabha I had declared that I will not contest any more elections," Deve Gowda added.

Four Rajya Sabha seats in Karnataka are about to fall vacant in June this year as two of Congress, one of BJP and JD(S) MPs retire.
