Workers of the ruling CPI(M) in Kerala allegedly manhandled Congress activists who tried to prevent the laying of demarcation stones for the Left Front’s flagship project semi-high-speed rail – the Silver Line.
The incident took place at the CPI(M) stronghold of Kannur district, close on the heels of a policeman booting a Congress worker who staged a protest against the rail project in Thiruvananthapuram.
As the officials started laying demarcation stones for the rail project at Edakkad in Kannur on Monday morning, Congress workers staged a protest. Subsequently, a group of CPI(M) workers countered them maintaining that they want development.
