Kasargod, Dec 22: At least ten Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) workers, including the party's SC/ST Morcha president P. Sudheer, were injured after a group of persons, allegedly Communist Party of India (Marxist) workers, attacked them at Cheemeni town on Wednesday. Two police personnel were also injured in the attack.

clashThe attack came as Mr. Sudheer was addressing a meeting in connection with the demonetisation of high-value currency notes. A police team, led by Cheemeni SI M.Sreedharan, tried to disperse the crowd. In the melee, Mr. Sreedharan and constable Shaju suffered injuries.

The injured BJP workers were admitted to a hospital at Ramnagar in Kanhangad.

Mr. Sudheer, a lawyer, had held talks with the displaced tribesmen of Malathumpara Colony at Periye, who were on a hunger strike in front of the Central University of Kerala seeking jobs for those who had to vacate their land for the university.

The local CPI(M) leadership, including K. Kunhiramaan, MLA, had been insisting that the university provide jobs to one of the eligible family members who had to vacate their land for the university. Sources here said Mr. Sudheer's talks with the tribespeople explaining the difficulties in acceding to their demands led to the attack, sources said.

The police have registered cases under various IPC sections in connection with the attack.

Three injured

In a separate incident, three youths were injured, one seriously, in a clash involving two groups at Cherkala, near Kasargod.

Those injured were identified as Noufal, 24, Muhammed Hashim, 22, and Abdul Shihab, 25.

While the seriously injured Noufal was rushed to a hospital in Mangaluru, the others were being treated at the General Hospital here, a senior officer at the Vidhanagar police station said.

The incident followed an altercation over bathing in a stream at Edaneer earlier in the day, the police said. Kasaragod Town SI K. Ajith Kumar sustained injuries after he fell into a ditch while giving chase to youths allegedly involved in the clash.

The police have taken two youths into custody in connection with the incident.

Frustrated BJP is trying for public disturbance all over india and particularly in Kerala. Police should take harsh action on these goondas and arrest them. These are jobless goons and are trying to loot from public property by creating disturbance. I appreciate kerala police for taking appropriate action against this anti nationals.

Thiruvananthapuram, Feb 7: Making a scathing attack on the Central government, Kerala Finance Minister Thomas Issac on Friday said the BJP-led NDA government was "strangulating" the southern state by denying funds.

Presenting the 2020-21 budget of the Pinarayi Vijayan led-LDF government, he alleged the centre has been "helping" corporates rather that the common man.

"The Centre has been strangulating Kerala by denying funds for the state and has been moving on a self-destructive path by corporate-friendly policies and privatisation. The GST implementation has not been beneficial for the state," he said.

"The government proposes 2.5 lakh water connections in the upcoming financial year. We will also construct one lakh houses under Life Mission," the finance minister said.

The budget has allocated Rs 90 crore for Pravasi Welfare Fund and the government proposes power projects with a capacity of 500 MW.

"The government proposes Kochi development plan with a fund of Rs 6,000 crore. The city will get an unified travel card and Metro project will be extended," Issac said.

The state government has increased all welfare pension funds by Rs 100, allotted Rs 40 crore to paddy farmers and Rs 10 crore for startups in the state.

The local self-governments have been allotted Rs five crore for waste management, Rs 20 crore has been set apart for 1,000 food stalls under hunger-free Kerala, where meals will be made available at Rs 25.
