Clash breaks out between LDF and UDF councilors in Kozhikode Corporation; journalists who filmed visuals also attacked

KOZHIKODE: A clash has broken out between LDF and UDF councilors in the Kozhikode Corporation. The clash broke out after the Kozhikode Mayor rejected the UDF councilors' demand to consider the Kozhikode PNB scam as an adjournment resolution. Five LDF councilors and one UDF councilor were injured in the clash. The journalists who filmed the visuals of the incident were also attacked.

Although the Congress and BJP had sought permission for the adjournment motion to discuss the fraud, Mayor Beena Phillip had denied permission. Later, 15 UDF councilors who continued their protests were suspended. Opposition Leader Shobitha is among the suspended councilors.
