Kerala: BJP approaches DGP over alleged one-sided police action

Digital Desk | Thiruvananthapuram, Oct 2 (IANS) The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Friday lodged a formal complaint with Kerala Director General of Police Ravada Chandrasekhar, alleging that the police were adopting a one-sided approach in dealing with incidents of violence involving Congress and BJP workers. A BJP delegation met the DGP and submitted a memorandum containing complaints raised by state BJP president Rajeev Chandrasekhar, MLA, regarding the alleged selective action by the police. BJP national executive member P.K. Krishnadas said after the meeting that the party had brought to the DGPs notice what it described as improper police action in several incidents of violence reported in the state in recent days. The BJP alleged that police personnel remained passive while Congress workers attacked a vehicle near the BJP state office and allegedly targeted Thiruvananthapuram South district president Mukkampalamoodu Biju. The party claimed that nearly 100 police personnel were present at the spot but failed to intervene. It also alleged that no arrests had been made in connection with the attack on the BJP state office. At the same time, BJP workers were arrested under non-bailable provisions in connection with the alleged attack on a District Congress Committee (DCC) office, the party said. The BJP further alleged that one of its workers was kept naked in a lock-up for several hours and demanded a comprehensive investigation into the incident. The party also alleged the presence of individuals with links to the Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI) and the banned Popular Front of India (PFI) during violent incidents involving Congress and Youth Congress workers. It demanded an impartial investigation into the alleged links. The BJP cited another instance of what it termed unequal treatment. The party alleged that its workers were booked under non-bailable provisions for showing black flags to Minister K.M. Shaji, while Youth Congress workers who protested against Union Home Minister Amit Shahs vehicle were booked under comparatively less severe provisions. Law should be equal for everyone, the BJP said. The party also alleged that the Congress was increasingly coming under the influence of the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) and Jamaat-e-Islami, and claimed that political pressure should not influence police functioning. Krishnadas said the alleged one-sided action was eroding public confidence in the police and demanded impartial enforcement of the law. BJP leaders said the party would launch stronger democratic protests unless action was taken against those responsible for attacks on BJP workers and the partys state office.

'Vote Bachao, Desh Bachao campaign underway: K.C. Venugopal

Digital Desk | Pathanamthitta (Kerala), Oct 2 (IANS) The Congress-led 'Vote Bachao, Desh Bachao (Save the Vote, Save the Nation)' campaign, which brings together prominent political parties and leaders of the INDIA bloc, started across the country on Friday to protect democracy and the voting rights of citizens, Congress General Secretary K.C. Venugopal said. Interacting with the media at Adoor on Friday, Venugopal described the campaign as a major political battle against what he alleged was an attempt to undermine democracy and deprive people of their right to vote. He said the campaign would continue till October 8 and would mobilise political parties and leaders against what he termed serious threats to the countrys democratic system. Venugopal sharply attacked the Election Commission, alleging that it was acting in a manner that undermined democracy. He referred to 14 letters written by two Election Commissioners, saying that even the issues raised in those communications had been ignored. He described the Election Commission as a fake Commission and said the campaign was aimed at removing those responsible for what he alleged was an attempt to undermine the democratic process. Venugopal also targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah, saying that the two should be made answerable before the people for what he described as the threat to citizens voting rights. As part of the campaign, INDIA bloc MPs will lead a march in Delhi on October 6, he said. Leaders will also court arrest as part of the agitation and intensify the protest. Venugopal said the campaign was aimed at bringing democratic forces together to fight against what he described as a major threat to the voting rights of citizens. He particularly referred to the role played by the Congress in Kerala in mounting protests despite what he described as government persecution. Even amid government persecution, the movement in Kerala was able to show black flags against Amit Shah and lead strong protests, he said. Venugopal said this demonstrated the ability of the party and its workers to sustain protests even in difficult circumstances. He called for similar united action against what he described as the larger threat facing the countrys democratic system. The priority of all of us should be to fight together against such major threats, he said, stressing that the issue was particularly serious when it involved the possibility of citizens losing their voting rights. The campaign will be used to take the issue to the people and mobilise support for the protection of democracy and the right to vote, Venugopal said. He said the Delhi march on October 6, to be led by MPs, would be followed by further protests and arrests by leaders as part of the campaign.

Gyanesh Kumar must take responsibility and resign: Pinarayi Vijayan amid Delhi protest against CEC

Former Keralam Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Friday claimed that several Communist Party of India (Marxist) leaders and student-youth activists were arrested during a protest against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar at Delhi's Jantar Mantar. In a post on X, Vijayan said, The arrest of Comrade MA Baby, Comrade Brinda Karat and student-youth activists while they were peacefully protesting at Jantar Mantar is an assault on democratic rights.

Viral video puts CPI(M) on the spot over Kerala MLA Joys 'threat' remarks

Digital Desk | Thiruvananthapuram, Oct 2 (IANS) The controversy over CPI(M) Thiruvananthapuram district secretary and three-time MLA V. Joys remarks against a police officer has intensified, with the video of his statement going viral and strong reactions emerging against the conduct of the senior party leader. Joy was heard telling Cantonment Assistant Commissioner V. Jayachandran during a party supporters march on Thursday that a murder would happen if they continued to be troubled by Sub-Inspector Gokul of the Cantonment police station. The remark, made in the presence of senior CPI(M) leaders, including Kadakampally Surendran and Anavoor Nagappan, has triggered criticism because it came from a sitting MLA and the district secretary of the ruling party. Joy, however, denied that he had issued a death threat. The controversy comes at a particularly sensitive time for the CPI(M), which has been engaged in a public exercise of introspection following its electoral setbacks. The party leadership has called for changes in the conduct of leaders and cadres, greater humility in dealings with people and a conscious effort to overcome the perception of arrogance and distance from the masses. The latest episode has therefore brought renewed attention to the question of whether the corrective measures being discussed within the party are finding expression in the conduct of its leaders. The immediate dispute arose after police entered the University Mens Hostel on Wednesday night, following clashes involving SFI and Youth Congress activists. The CPI(M) and SFI have alleged that Cantonment Inspector Satheesh Kumar and Sub-Inspector Gokul assaulted SFI activists and have demanded action against them. Police have a different account of the circumstances surrounding the clashes, with cases registered against activists from different groups. The protests escalated on Thursday, with CPI(M) and SFI activists marching to the Secretariat demanding action against the two officers. SFI leaders had also warned that the police personnel would be confronted on the streets. The controversy has now moved beyond the original police action, with attention focused on the language used by senior political leaders against serving police personnel. The situation has also raised law-and-order concerns. Police security was tightened at the residence of Inspector Satheesh Kumar in Myladi, Kattakada, following threats and cyber attacks targeting the two officers. For the CPI(M), the episode presents an uncomfortable political question -- whether its call for self-correction, restraint and a more people-friendly approach can be reconciled with the public conduct of its senior leaders. With the video continuing to circulate, the remarks are unlikely to remain confined to the political protest that triggered them. More importantly, with the upcoming Assembly session commencing next week, the Satheesan government will use this against the CPI(M).

High command will take call, says Sunny Joseph on Kerala UDF convenor's attack on CM Satheesan

Digital Desk | Kannur, Oct 2 (IANS) Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president and State Power Minister Sunny Joseph on Friday refused to react publicly to UDF convenor and Congress MP Adoor Prakashs open criticism of Chief Minister V.D. Satheesan, saying that any grievance should be raised within the party forums. This was Sunnys first response after Prakash launched a sharp attack on the Chief Ministers style of functioning on Thursday and alleged that the UDF was not being consulted on important matters. Speaking to the media at his home turf in Kannur, Sunny said Prakash had already made it clear that he would take his grievances to the All India Congress Committee (AICC). Now he himself has said that he will do so. Let it happen, Sunny said. He pointed out that it was the AICC that had appointed Prakash to his present position and that the partys central leadership would take a decision on the matter. It was the AICC which appointed him. They will take the call, Sunny said. Sunny made it clear that he did not intend to enter into a public debate over the differences raised by Prakash. I will not make any comments on this in the public domain. If I have to say anything, I will say it in the party forums, he said. Speaking to the media on Friday, Prakash said his criticism was based on his own experience and that he had not sought the support of anyone before making the remarks. I had said everything that needed to be said yesterday, Prakash said, maintaining that his response was made in his individual capacity and that he had not consulted anyone. He also pointed out that the UDF had met only once in the past four months. There are no problems in the UDF. What I said is a reality. I did not make the remarks seeking anyones support. I will directly convey my complaint to the AICC, Prakash said. Prakash also said he was not opposed to giving positions to leaders such as M.K. Muneer or G. Devarajan, whom he described as good leaders. His objection, he said, was that certain consultations had not taken place. I stand by what I said. Let anyone reject my statements, he said. Prakash also maintained that he had no personal dispute with Satheesan, but added that the Chief Ministers approach was visible to everyone and could be assessed by them. The contrasting responses from the two senior Congress leaders have brought the issue into the partys internal forum, with Prakash opting to approach the AICC and Sunny making it clear that he would not discuss the matter publicly. Reading between the lines, the reaction of cabinet colleagues of Satheesan, including K. Muraleedharan and A.P. Anil Kumar, without breaking any rules, was seen as expressing their dissent against Prakash. Veteran Congress leader A.K. Antony, who arrived at the state party headquarters, said he does not react to any issue these days. Deputy Speaker of the Kerala Assembly Shanimol Usman said that in the best interest, it would be good to allow a good growth for the three-month-old baby.
