Hello
Speaking at a public meeting held to commemorate the 78th Punnapra Vayalar Martyrs' Day, the CM accused the Centre of neglecting the state's disaster relief pleas.
The protesters alleged that officials failed to respond even after repeated pleas throughout the night. Around 50 people, including women and elderly, joined the sit-in protest.
The accused were caught red-handed accepting a bribe of Rs 5,000 from an individual who had applied to convert the status of his property, officials said.
The debate was based on BJP leader PS Sreedharan Pillai's work, 'Punnapra-Vayalar Samarathinte Kaanappurangal' (The Unseen Dimensions of the Punnapra Vayalar Agitation).
