Yuva Morcha workers stage black flag protests in Kozhikode

Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) workers staged black-flag demonstrations against Home Minister Ramesh Chennithala and Wayanad MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra at separate locations in Kozhikode district on Sunday (September 27).

The protest against Mr. Chennithala took place near Janakikkad in the Kuttiady area when his convoy was travelling to Kozhikode for a series of programmes. A group of BJYM workers reportedly moved towards the convoy on a narrow stretch of road and waved black flags. The police detained the protesters and removed them from the area.

A similar demonstration was held near Thambalamanna in the Thiruvambady area when Ms. Gandhi’s convoy was passing through the region. The convoy was travelling under the security cover of the Central Reserve Police Force and the Kerala police. Protesters positioned along the roadside reportedly moved towards the convoy and waved black flags.
