Kerala political violence: CPM to stage countrywide protests against BJP on 9 October

Patna: The CPM will stage countrywide protests against the BJP on 9 October to expose the latter’s real agenda behind political violence in CPM-ruled Kerala, party leader Sitaram Yechuri said on Friday. “The CPM will protest across the country against the BJP to expose its violence agenda in Kerala. We will fight the BJP with the support of people democratically,” Yechuri told the media in Patna. [caption id=“attachment_3874127” align=“alignleft” width=“380”] Representational image.
