Activists of the Democratic Youth Federation of India (DYFI) presented a symbolic noose to Raju P. Nair, president of Mulanthuruthy block panchayat, after he criticised the government’s decision to impose lockdown from May 8 to May 16. Reacting to the Facebook post by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on the proposed lockdown, Mr. Nair said the government should include a ‘noose’ in the food kit. “I am not against lockdown, but the government should infuse money into [the] hands of people before going for a lockdown,” he wrote. Mr. Nair is the general secretary of the Ernakulam District Congress Committee. DYFI activists belonging to the north zone committee at Udayamperoor kept a noose in front of Mr. Nair’s residence as a mark of protest against his post. “A kit was not kept, as the government would definitely provide it,” they said.More Related News
