KOZHIKODE: BJP state president K Surendran has alleged that there is a planned attempt to form a Malabar state centered on Kozhikode. While pointing out that the leader of the Samastha Kerala Sunni Students Federation (SKSSF) had recently put forward this demand, Surendran said that move poses a threat to Kerala as it was supported by the Muslim League.

The decision to strengthen this agenda was taken at a meeting of the Popular Front in Bengaluru. Religious extremists are preparing to repeat what happened in Malappuram in 1921 all over Kerala, Surendran said. Kerala is on top of a volcano. According to Surendran, poor girls are being taken to Syria through 'love jihad'.
