MALAPPURAM: Police have clarified that it was a 12-member Maoist team that pasted posters against Women’s Wall on the roadsides in Malappuram.

Adivasi people in this area said that the Maoists had moved towards Wayanad region carrying weapons.

The anti-Women’s Wall posters appeared on Sunday noon in Malappuram. The poster said that the Wall would create communal divides in society and slammed the government for using money from its fund for organising Women’s Wall.

However, the poster also criticised the RSS, saying that blocking women in Sabarimala is an age old belief of RSS. It opined that the government should have provided protection to the women who had arrived for Sabarimala darshan.
