CPI (M) office attack: BJP corners Kerala Govt., demands end to violence

Condemning the attack on the Communist Party of India (Marxist) office in Kerala's Vishnumangalam, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national secretary Siddharth Nath Singh on Friday cornered the state government for its silence on the matter and demanded apt action against the culprits without any further delay.

"The government is of the CPM, so if they want to apply the law of the land they must catch hold of those who are culprits and bring an end to this kind of violence," Singh told ANI.

"The law of the land does not apply but the ideology of the Leftist does apply in Kerala. Therefore, such violence is taking place," he asserted, adding accountability lies with the Kerala Government.

A day after a bomb was hurled at a Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) office in Kallachy near Nadapuram, the Communist Party of India (Marxist) office at Vishnumangalam was put on fire by few unidentified people.

The attack comes after RSS leader Kundan Chandrawat offered Rs. one crore to anyone who would bring Kerala Chief Minister P. Vijayan's head to him.

"If anyone beheads the Kerala CM, who is the murderer of RSS activists, and brings his head I will bequeath my property worth more than Rs. one crore to him," he had said.
