MALAPPURAM : FB post on Solar Scam comes to haunt a row between Congress worjkers in Malappuram and ends up in fist and chair fights at an anti-CAA protest organised by the party there. The Day and Night Satyagraha against the controversial citizenship law, convened by DCC President VV Prakash was called off past midnight Wednesday, following the violence.
Trouble began when a group led by INTUC leader reached the protest venue around 11 pm, Tuesday night. The group roughed up with former KSU leader, recalling his FB post against a Congress veteran during the sensational Solar Scam. The party had banned the former student leader, a Mongam native, from taking part in its activities.
Things exxploded as the KSU leader, who was manhandled by the group behind the protest shed, ran screaming amidst the party workers. Taking sides, the members swung blows and chairs and at one another, putting an end to the protest event held there.
